About Us
In Rwanda, every school day begins with a blank page, a notebook waiting to be filled with lessons, dreams, and possibilities. But for millions of young adolescents and youth, there’s a lesson they rarely receive: how to protect their health, make informed choices, and shape a future free from preventable challenges like teenage pregnancy, gender-based violence, and misinformation about sexual and reproductive health (SRH).
“The Nyigisha notebooks have helped our students understand their health better. They now ask informed questions and make responsible decisions.” – School Teacher, Kigali
