Confusion resonates: Was asked at at Conference in 2010 why in RWISA HIV cohort I led adherence to ARVs was >95%. Is this due to dictatorship in Rwanda. Me: no, but assuming this was true, why can't other programs do the same to reduce viral load, boost CD4+ cells and save lives?
Good to know Theo! Thanks to the birthday well wishes to the boys- Bright and Brio! Best to the boys and entire family-
@ScienceTechRw creating opportunities for scientific & technology progress through awarding best scientists & innovators, Nobel laureates are not only born but given research environment to grow, promote human & societies development
In future, @ScienceTechRw looks forward to a time when Novel Foundation may be created to attract competitive scientific awards in Rwanda as a hub for African innovations
An impressive discussions on how frontier technologies is improving social economic growth of Rwanda through space, agriculture & environment sciences
A key milestone for @RwandaGov 5G connectivity will increase work productivity, help businesses & industries to flourish & inprove people's way of life

@RwandaICT
This is mere extrapolated narrative named "undercover" investigation. The data on global immigration crisis are evident & known for long eg the Lampedusa crossings in 🇮🇹 Darien gap crossing in Panama etc emphasize the crisis. The so-called undercover is merely stated known facts!
Can't agree more! A working progress, proud of @RwandaGov leadership and decisions to empower young leaders!!
A baseless political propaganda by @HRF condemning @RwandaGov for successful partnership with best global football clubs, @FCBayernEN is doing the right thing; previous partnership have had increased trajectory tourism funding to Rwanda. @HRF unhappy about this success! Too bad!!
1/ HRF condemns the sponsorship deal between top German club FC Bayern Munich and #Rwanda as a shameful and regressive example of the club lending its prestige to another brutal dictatorship seeking to whitewash its murderous abuses with sports.

Impressive, congratulations to @c4ir_rw and to @ScienceTechRw team for facilitating the process, Grand Challenges Rwanda was launched recently in May 2023, and now we are seeing 2-3 grants realized and others in progress.
Thrilled to announce we've secured the @gatesfoundation Grand Challenges grant! We're tackling malnutrition by providing health workers with an AI-enabled decision support tool powered by GPT-4 and @DUmuganda translation engine. Learn more: bit.ly/44gq1PW
As we develop the NCST 5-year Strategic Plan 2023/28, we will advocate for R&D to play a more critical role in policy & implementation programs
Dear All, @Uni_Rwanda @RBCRwanda @RwandaAgri @cmu_africa @RwandaAgriBoard @ughe_org @vc_ines2 and several CoE @Ace2Africa prestigious awards for science and innovation excellence await best projects, submit your abstracts by September 15!!
Congratulations @g_mukeshimana a Humble and hard working leader!
The conversation was clear and succulent, yes a lot is being done by all and by @RwandaGov but more is needed. Congrats to the team!

@ScienceTechRw reminds potential applicants to the RFP themed "Innovative frontier technologies for climate resilient agriculture, food security and safety in Africa" that the deadline for applications is June 30th 2023. For more details, visit ncst.gov.rw
Great move! Based on current gross expenditure on R&D in Rwanda of 0.69% in 2019, a consideration of a package of incentives & support for researchers is likely based on IP/innovation/publication of patent, high impact journal publications & inter funding awards/partnerships.
Tanzania’s researchers offered US$22,000 to publish in international journals nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
@ScienceTechRw and @SciforAfrica consider a developmental challenge as a complex issue (climate change resilient, agriculture etc) affecting/preventing social-economic, quality of life growth of majority of population.
On 18th May 2023, GC Rwanda through @ScienceTechRw in partnership with GC Africa through @SciforAfrica opened a RFP themed "Innovative frontier technologies for climate resilient agriculture, food security and safety in Africa". Remember to consider major points when applying.
This Grand Challenges Rwanda RFP requires use of frontier technology ie AI, IoTs, machine learning, drone tech, big data analytics etc to address the identified challenge ref to NCST.gov.rw Tel 0781030798 and [email protected] for details
