About us

Our Story

 This initiative was born from the vision of a Swiss education expert with over 20 years of experience in school leadership. Inspired by project visits to Rwanda as a board member of the Swiss NGO Business Professional Network (BPN), he initiated a dialogue with Rwanda’s Ministry of Education in 2021. Exploratory visits in 2022 and an educational exchange in 2023 laid the groundwork for the “Support Special Needs Education (SNE)” program.

Our Mission

 We are dedicated to transforming Rwanda’s education system by fostering inclusive, activity-based, and learner-centered education for children with special needs. Through long-term partnerships between Swiss and Rwandan institutions, we aim to ensure every child, regardless of ability, has access to quality education and the opportunity to thrive.
