Last week at Kigali Children’s Peace Library, we held a variety of engaging programs focused on promoting a culture of reading and peace literacy.Children participated in both book reading and digital reading activities. Through digital reading, learners in Grades 2 and 3 read books on TV screen while building their vocabulary. A total of 44 children took part in the reading sessions, including 24 boys and 20 girls. We also gathered as a Peace Club and held a lively debate on how respect creates peace at school.The key lesson was that everyone deserves respect-regardless of age-and that respecting one another helps prevent conflicts and strengthens love and unity among students. The session ended with fun games that reinforced these peace values. The Peace Club currently includes 18 boys and 12 girls.
All activities continue to focus on nurturing a strong culture of reading and peace literacy among children

Last week, the kids at the Children’s Peace Library in Burera took part in a full week of engaging reading activities using both digital tools, such as iPads, and printed books. These activities strengthened their reading skills while nurturing their curiosity and love of learning.
Through a read-aloud session with the book “Decision”, the children discovered important values such as working together, cooperation, and respecting one another. After the read-aloud, they made a meaningful commitment to practice these values in their daily lives, growing not only as readers but also as responsible and caring young people.

Thursday 8,2026, TLC-Rwanda had the pleasure of welcoming two visitors-one was an American researcher from Illunions University, specializing in sustainable agriculture and post-harvest loss prevention. She was accompanied by a representative from SNV.
Together, we visited two field sites in Mutete and Rukomo from Gicumbi district.
During the visits, they engaged with community members, asking insightful questions about how the soil conservation farming groups operate and how they were formed, who the members are (including the balance of men and women), and how sustainable agriculture practices are being promoted and shared across the community.

They also explored how gender-based violence (GBV) might affect rural communities and how gender equality is respected in household decision-making related to sustainable farming # food Security Project # Pdn Rwanda #

Transformational Leadership Center through the Kigali children’s peace library recently held a three-day Peer Mediation Training to empower children with skills for peaceful conflict resolution
Participants explored the causes of conflict, the role of emotions like anger, and how disagreements can affect relationships and learning. They learned peaceful communication techniques, including “I and You” messages and active listening, to resolve conflicts respectfully
Through interactive activities and the Tree of Violence & Tree of Peace exercises, children identified behaviors that escalate conflicts versus those that promote empathy and cooperation. They also practiced real-life mediation, developing qualities of fairness, patience, and confidentiality.
By the end of the training, children were equipped to mediate conflicts, promote dialogue, and contribute to a culture of peace in their schools and communities -Rwanda

The Burera Children’s Peace Library is one of TLC Rwanda’s libraries. The library continues to attract many children living around the library hub.
The librarian, Gentille, is always happy to assist children in reading and exploring books through the digital library. She shared that the number of children visiting the library has increased compared to before the introduction of the digital library, as children now find it easier to access and search for books digitally than only using the physical library.
Through this initiative, we continue to build a strong culture of reading, promote peace literacy, and support learning among children and youth in the region
