Rwanda’s First Lady Jeannette Kagame arrived in Doha yesterday to participate in a high-profile conference commemorating the 30th International Year of the Family (IYF), marking a significant step in global discussions on family welfare and poverty eradication.
The conference, hosted by the Doha International Family Institute (DIFI), a Qatar Foundation member organization, brings together international leaders and policymakers to address pressing issues facing families worldwide.
The First Lady is set to deliver a keynote address focusing on strategies to break the cycle of intergenerational poverty through targeted family support initiatives. Her participation highlights the growing recognition of family-centered approaches in sustainable development and poverty reduction efforts.
The improvement of family welfare is crucial in the fight against extreme poverty. The conference aims to develop comprehensive strategies for supporting families while addressing broader societal challenges.
The First Lady’s intervention comes at a time when many nations are reassessing their approaches to family support and poverty alleviation programs. Her address is expected to draw from Rwanda’s experiences and successful initiatives in improving family welfare.
The two-day conference will feature discussions on various topics ranging from economic support for families to educational opportunities and social protection measures.
