These young innovators are are claiming their rightful place in the digital economy, a testament that when we design technology for everyone, we unlock the full strength of our societies.

Today, on the final day of #21DaysOfYelloCare, MTN Rwanda has donated 30 smartphones along with a screen reader software license to @RATAAccess. This powerful tool will support over 100 visually impaired users across Rwanda, enabling access to the digital world through both speech and braille output. This technology speaks the language of independence- allowing users to navigate apps, access information, and reclaim digital spaces with confidence because inclusion isn’t optional. It’s the foundation of a connected, empowered society, where no one is left behind. #ConnectingAtTheRoots #DoingForTomorrowToday #NicyoGihe
