In 1996, Agnes Binagwaho returned home to Rwanda in the aftermath of its genocide. She considered leaving amid the overwhelming devastation, but women in her community motivated her to stay and help rebuild -- and she's glad she did. In an inspiring talk, Binagwaho reflects on her work as Rwanda's former Minister of Health and discusses her new women's education initiative for the country, which strives to create one of the greatest levels of gender equality worldwide.

NGL, I pretty much despise this idea of "Woman + Power = Utopia!".
Man and Woman are both capable of great feats, especially leading a nation, but if you want people to take gender issues and equality seriously, as well as stay true to your word that no one should be favoured or dismissed because of their gender, you need to stop spreading the "Women are Wiser" trope. And this is generally speaking.
It's good that she and others are helping rebuild the society back after violent conflicts, but as a man, we need to stop associating certain traits and ideas to a gender, especially when socialisation, culture and environment play a VERY HUGE role in shaping our character.
Bilal Shafique So, as a fellow man to another man, step up. Good female leaders rise when incompetent males lead people to ruin. These Rwandan ladies have done much to reclaim the honor that evil men has done to Rwanda during the genocide.
And I say this not only to male Rwandans, but also to the males of the world (including me). Step up in areas that needs change.
@@alexanderchristopher6237 thank you for this thoughtful response. Male allies are necessary in the fight for female empowerment.
My brothers, may God reward you. Help me. I am a mother and I have children. We have no breadwinner except God. My Lord knows that I am in a difficult situation because of poverty. To me I want to do good. He will communicate with us. God is a witness
You have no right to export people to a third country. Process their applications and if they are not successful, then send them back home, but not to a third country. If something happens to them you will be held responsible together with that corrupt Rwandan gov
No, men should revolutionase Rwanda. Nothing changes in Africa with out men.
revolutionize* and btw "without" is a single word babes 💋
