The Rwanda #YACA (Youth Alliance for Climate
Actions) aka RYACA is pleased to implement an ambitious project “Promoting
Youthpreneurship and Enviropreneurship in Rwanda – #YEPRwanda2014” with the
support of the US Embassy in Kigali.
The project is an awareness and action campaign
aiming to promote new concepts in Rwanda which are Youthpreneurship and
Enviropreneurship amongst youth through music and capacity building for
(social) entrepreneurship and environment conservation.

In RYACA, we seek to develop an eco-conscientious
generation of youth in Rwanda who act as change makers and green job creators
and green entrepreneurs.
The project seeks to hire 40 volunteers (20 boys
and 20 girls) will be empowered as youthpreneurs and enviropreneurs, and who
will participate in the following activities:
  • Promote the project on social media (Facebook,
    twitter…) with the following hashtag #YEPRwanda2014, by liking and sharing
    project activities;
  • Promote the network Rwanda YACA (Youth
    Alliance for Climate Action) Facebook page by inviting their friends on
    Facebook to like our page. Each volunteer is expected to bring at least
    100 likes by end of the project.
  • Participate in a video clip of the song that
    will be produced as part of the project
