GUBA Awards 2022

RCBWEB — 2022-09-09T13:18:15Z

Honouring Pan-AfricanExcellence and Innovation

The GUBA Awards this year seek to celebrate a historical hero within the Rwandan and African communities. Under the theme ‘Ndabaga – Drumbeat of Dreamers and Legends' the Awards strive to convey the power of determination and focus.

The story of Ndabaga is a keystone of Rwandan folklore representing bravery and determination.

If ever there was a time to unite and celebrate the best of diversity, it is now. It is incredibly important to recognize the achievements of role models and community organizations across the world that deserve recognition for their work and impact, so that we as Africans, can tell our own stories.

The GUBA Awards, therefore, aim to reward individuals who continue to persist and show great courage within their various fields.

Kwita Izina

RCBWEB — 2022-09-02T10:45:00Z

Get ready to experience one of the world's most important celebrations of nature and meet Rwanda's newborn baby gorillas

Kwita Izina is modelled off a centuries old tradition in which Rwandans name their children in the presence of family and friends. In 2005, Rwanda began officially naming mountain gorillas in what has become a global celebration of nature. By giving a name to these majestic animals, we give them a value they undoubtedly deserve.

The ceremony is an opportunity to thank the communities that live around Volcanoes National Park, our research partners, vets and the dedicated conservationists, rangers and trackers who protect the gorillas. Over the last 17 years, 354 mountain gorillas have been named.

The 18th Kwita Izina will be held on Friday, 2 September 2022, and will celebrate the country's commitment to sustainable and responsible tourism.
