It was such a great experience representing Canada-Mathare Education Trust (CMETrust) at the 2024 HALI Access Network Indaba held at Nyagatare in Rwanda, with the theme; Global Learners Local Leaders. The Indaba brings university representatives from America & Europe together with organizations helping HALI scholars access quality education in Africa and beyond. I had a chance to interact with alumni from different HALI organisations who have studied abroad and are now doing amazing work in their respective countries, from their stories I learnt the challenges most scholars go through in school and after graduation, my takeaway from our conversations was to well prepare our scholars. Lastly it was a great platform learning from different university representatives their application process and HALI members who shared their experiences & challenges in the application processes and how we can continue supporting the network to grow and achieve it's mandate in Africa. A big thank you to HALI Access Network for giving us such a learning platform. #CMETrustAt17 #2024HALIIndaba

Two weeks ago, I had the honor of participating once again in the Rise Up convening. As a passionate advocate for gender equity and quality education the four days experience empowered me with advanced skills in advocacy and leadership. I also had the privilege of expanding my network, connecting with like-minded leaders and changemakers who also create equitable opportunities for girls and young women accessing quality education in our society, These new connections and insights will undoubtedly strengthen my work at Canada-Mathare Education Trust (CMETrust) #WezeshaKike #RiseUpTogether #GenderEquity

"Reflecting on an inspiring Saturday at the Canada-Mathare Education Trust (CMETrust) Summer Workshop 2024! 🎓✨ It was a privilege to engage with my fellow brilliant scholars through team-building activities and meaningful conversations about education, college life, and career opportunities. A special highlight was learning from Titus Kuria , CMETrust’s CO-FOUNDER , who emphasized the power of building a professional portfolio using social media and the importance of networking and giving back to our community. Truly an enriching experience! 🙌 #CMETrustAt17 #SDG4
