Friday, 17 October 2025

The Democratic Green Party of Rwanda continues to make significant strides in empowering women and youth across the country through sustainable livelihood and income-generating projects, while also strengthening its Party structures.
Having completed its empowerment programs in the Northern and Eastern Provinces, the Party is now actively extending its activities into the Western Province. In this latest phase, DGPR-Green Party has so far reached two districts, Rutsiro and Rubavu, where it has conducted trainings and established new party structures at the district level.

Representing the Party President, Hon. Dr. Frank Habineza, was the Commissioner General, Hon. Alex Mugisha, who engaged members in both districts by sharing the Party’s ideology and reiterating what the Democratic Green Party of Rwanda stands for.
A key part of the visit involved a series of capacity-building sessions:
•Commissioner for Legal and Human Rights: Maitre HITIMANA Sylvestre, a human rights expert, facilitated trainings on human rights, emphasizing the importance of dignity, equality, and justice in everyday life.
•The National Youth Treasurer, Miss Uwamahoro Maombe, reminded young members of their critical role in environmental protection, aligning with the DGPR-Green Party’s principles.
•Miss Juliet Batsinda, Secretary of the Communication Commission, led a session on effective use of media and social media. She encouraged members to use digital platforms positively to promote the Party’s message, while also warning against misuse that could tarnish both personal and party reputations.

These efforts are part of the DGPR- Party’s broader plan to reach all 30 districts of Rwanda, empowering its members, especially women and youth, with practical tools and knowledge for sustainable livelihoods, civic engagement, and environmental stewardship.
The Democratic Green Party of Rwanda remains committed to building a stronger, more inclusive political Party that listens to the voices of grassroots communities.
