This InternationalYouthDay, we celebrate youth as partners in creating lasting change.

Through the Digital Skills for Employability (DSE) Program, DOT Rwanda is working alongside youth to strengthen their digital and business skills, build confidence, access opportunities, and turn ideas into sustainable livelihoods.

From entrepreneurship and employment to innovation and community leadership, youth are not just preparing for the future, they are shaping it today.

We remain committed to creating spaces where young people's voices, ideas, and experiences inform solutions and drive inclusive economic growth.

Together, we can deepen youth partnerships and build a future where every young person has the skills and opportunities to thrive.

Technology transforms lives when it is accessible to everyone.
Through the Digital Skills for Employability (DSE) Program, DOT Rwanda has equipped Mahama, Nyabiheke, Mugombwa, and Kigeme Refugee Camps with 40 computers, expanding access to digital learning and creating new pathways to self-reliance, employment, and entrepreneurship for refugee youth.

This investment goes beyond providing equipment. It is about creating opportunities, bridging the digital divide, and ensuring that refugee youth have the skills and confidence to participate meaningfully in Rwanda's growing digital economy.

At DOT Rwanda, we remain committed to ensuring that no young person is left behind, empowering youth with the digital, entrepreneurial, and employability skills they need to secure dignified and fulfilling work.
Together, we are building a more inclusive digital future.

Today, the DOT Rwanda leadership team had a productive engagement with Minister of State for ICT and Innovation, Yves Iradukunda, to discuss the progress of the Digital Skills for Employability (DSE) Program and opportunities to strengthen collaboration in advancing Rwanda's digital transformation agenda.

Our discussions reaffirmed the strong alignment between the and the initiative. Beyond equipping young people with digital skills, the is focused on helping youth apply those skills to secure employment, launch businesses, innovate, and participate meaningfully in Rwanda's and the global digital economy.

Through the DSE Consortium, we are contributing to the development of:
💠 Digital workers through practical digital and business skills training
💠 Digital professionals through advanced training in software development, cybersecurity, cloud computing, and UI/UX design
💠 Digital entrepreneurs through innovation challenges, hackathons, coaching, business competitions, and catalytic funding.

We were encouraged by the Minister's strategic vision for strengthening Rwanda's digital talent ecosystem, including proposals for a centralized assessment platform to build employer confidence in digital talent, a unified national talent portal to connect employers with skilled youth, and communities of practice to support continuous learning and professional networking beyond training.

At DOT Rwanda, we believe that skills development must ultimately translate into opportunity. We look forward to deepening collaboration with the Ministry and ecosystem partners to ensure more young people can access dignified employment, entrepreneurship, and innovation opportunities in Rwanda's growing digital economy.

The future is brighter when young people empower young people.
We are proud to celebrate the successful completion of the Young Leadership Program 2026–2027 Training of Trainers for Digital Champions and Business Coaches under the Digital Skills for Employability Program.

This new cohort of youth leaders including young women, refugee youth, rural youth, and youth with disabilities are now equipped to transfer digital, entrepreneurial, and leadership skills to their peers, creating pathways to employment, entrepreneurship, and dignified livelihoods across Rwanda.

Their passion, commitment, and gratitude throughout the training were a powerful reminder that when young people are trusted, invested in, and given opportunities to lead, they become catalysts for change in their communities.

As they embark on this journey of empowering all youth, we look forward to the ripple effect of impact they will create, expanding access to skills, opportunities, and hope for thousands of young people.

Congratulations to all our newly trained Digital Champions and Business Coaches. The journey of transformation continues.
