Today, Save the Children Rwanda & Burundi — in partnership with the Rwandan National Police — launched the “One Team, Zero Harm” road safety campaign in Kigali.

The initiative promotes safe road-user behaviour among staff, partners, communities and children, strengthening a culture of shared responsibility.

SSP Emmanuel Kayigi (RNP Traffic Police) commended the partnership, and Phoebe Mukazera, Acting Country Director, called on all staff to travel safely and protect the children and communities we serve.

The campaign runs through 26 June 2026 across Save the Children’s operations, including field offices in Rwanda and Burundi.

Dancing for Change: How Learners Are Leading the Fight Against School Dropout

Through the Zero Out Of School Children Project, learners at GS Murambi, (Gatsibo District) are taking an active role in ensuring that no child is left behind. As part of an initiative called the “Village at School,” students come together every morning before class to discuss challenges that may lead to dropping out and to identify children who are still out of school.

Every Wednesday afternoon, the energy continues as learners and teachers gather in anti-dropout clubs. Through dance, poetry, and drama, they raise awareness about the importance of staying in school and inspire their peers to keep going.

This approach has proven to be more than just an activity; it is a powerful strategy. It not only helps identify out-of-school children but also strengthens learners’ commitment to their own education.

On this International Dance Day, we celebrate these young changemakers who are using their talents and voices to build a future where every child can access quality education.

On , Save the Children Rwanda joins partners in treating malaria in Rwanda and Burundi. Through our comprehensive Primary Health care interventions, we focus on the treatment of malaria for children, pregnant and lactating women. We also engage Community Health Workers in prevention and control in Mahama, Nyabiheke and Nkamira: The global theme is “Driven to : Now We Can. Now We Must." This is a rallying cry to grasp the moment—to protect lives now and fund a malaria-free future.

When the Zero OOSC Project Support Sparks Community Commitment: Verena’s Story

At 75 years old, Verena Munyambokazi is proving that meaningful support can inspire powerful change within communities.

From Gatsibo District, Verena is a devoted grandmother and guardian to Sandrine, 16, who was recently out of school. When the Zero OOSC Project reached her community, Verena took it upon herself to ensure Sandrine could return to education. To show her support, Verena visits Sandrine at school, follows up on her performance, and continuously encourages her to stay focused on her education.

To Verena, education is a priceless asset and a lifelong treasure that creates opportunities without ever losing its value.

Her story is a powerful reminder that when communities are supported, they rise, and children like Sandrine are given the chance to thrive.
