About Three hundred girls from the Association of Genocide Survivor Students (AERG) are undergoing a mentorship programme aimed at helping them think big and rebuild their lives.

The programme under the theme; "It is not about you,” hosted by Imbuto Foundation, opened on May 30. It seeks to inspire Genocide survivors to think beyond their personal predicaments by broadening their responsibilities in dealing with problems they face.

 According to a statement from Imbuto Foundation, the meeting offers mentors and learners an opportunity to understand their roles and recommit their time and effort to transforming lives.

About 100 mentors have been lined up to take the young women through topics such as thinking big, the importance of critical thinking, personal responsibility and focusing on improving oneself.

Those to be mentored are vulnerable survivors of the Genocide who face severe challenges such as poverty and trauma.
