I urge and encourage our young people present today to embrace your heritage, draw inspiration from those who came before you, and use your talents to build a better Rwanda, a better Africa, and a better world for all of us.

More quotes by Mathilde Mukantabana

It is the state’s responsibility to protect the freedom and human rights of all people within its borders.

Rwanda would have been called a “failed state,” but people refused to surrender to despair.

But you can move forward and you can actually find strength by acknowledging even your frailties as human being.

That change is key, because full development cannot happen if half the people of Africa are not fully recognized as equal partners in society.

But you can't just come with promises of better things when you are not really offering anything.
