One thing that is universal in education is professional development. Yesterday we received an excellent training on ‘School-Based Mental Health and Adolescent Sexual & Reproductive Health for School Staff’ by Mukantwali Bienvenue of the Gathsibo district educational office. Ms. Bienvenue discussed the issues that Rwandan youth are facing, such as depression and teenage pregnancy. No doubt the youth of every country are dealing with these same issues. Always good to received professional development trainings to keep us sharp and raise awareness.
