Story About Us
Who are we?
AKWOS Mission is: To Empower East-African women, starting from Rwanda, through sports and education.
Empowering women in decision making towards peace building
After the destructive genocide of 1994, there was a great need to mobilize and guide the population to reconstruct it’s own lives as well as their communities and country.
Education through sports
- Peace building, gender equality and leadership through sports;
- Sport as a tool of development
- Sports and human development
- Sport and economic development
- Sport in pursuit of the millenium development
- Sport and sustainable development
Teenage Pregnancy Prevention Program
At Akwos Rwanda, we are asking important questions with regards to teenage sexuality and the consequences. We are using sports as a platform to share information and sensitise the community on this issue
AKWOS Sports Academy
Over the years, there has been under-representation and lack of development opportunities for women leaders in sports. Despite a variety of efforts to remedy the situation, sports leadership continues to be male-dominated.
