In honor of World Refugee Day, this timely conversation will take place on Tuesday, June 17 at 9am PDT / 12pm EDT / 5pm BST.

This special gathering will highlight the resilience and contributions of refugees, as well as the profound uncertainty they currently face. IRC Advisor and Chair Emeritus Sarah O’Hagan will join IRC Senior Director of Asylum and Legal Protection Olga Byrne for a discussion on the far-reaching effects of shifting resettlement policies amid record-high displacement—and how the IRC is responding to meet this urgent challenge.

We will also hear from IRC staff who have experienced displacement themselves. With the support of welcoming communities, they have rebuilt their lives and are now helping others facing similar challenges. From starting their education in a refugee camp in Guinea to resettling in the U.S. after war-inflicted injuries, their inspiring stories underscore the power of resilience and recovery, made possible by the unwavering support of people like you.

Adolescent fertility rates in Rwanda highlight a sobering reality: around 13% of girls aged 19 have already given birth, and those who drop out of school face an even higher risk of pregnancy. This disrupts not only their education but also their future, restricting their opportunities and perpetuating cycles of poverty and hardship. Teen mothers often face severe health risks, unemployment, and limited opportunities for both themselves and their children.
However, there is hope. This project aims to break the cycle of poverty and create opportunities for both teen mothers and their children in Rwanda through a unique Two-Generation Approach. We focus on ensuring that young mothers can return to school, stay in school, and provide their children with the best possible start in life.
This project seeks to bring back to school 100 teen mothers who dropped out due to pregnancy and were unable to return because of poverty and social stigma. By providing the necessary resources, educational support, and social services, we aim to help them complete their education, improve their learning outcomes, and break free from the cycle of poverty.
In addition, 100 children born to these teen mothers will also receive support to ensure they reach their full potential. This includes early childhood development resources, proper nutrition, and educational tools designed to give them the best start in life, setting them on a path to success.
Why This Matters:
By investing in the education of both teen mothers and their children, we are investing in a brighter, more prosperous future for Rwanda. Education is the foundation of progress. However, without support, teen mothers face a precarious future, often forced to choose between caring for their child and continuing their education.
This project offers a solution by creating a supportive environment that allows young mothers to balance their academic aspirations with their responsibilities as mothers. Through educational resources, mentorship, and health support, these teen mothers will be empowered to finish their education, build a better future for themselves, and break the cycle of poverty that too often plagues young mothers and their children.
