Rwanda: a story of transformation | Robin Martens | TEDxINSEAD

The 1994 genocide in Rwanda was a human drama. At the same time, it proved the starting point of the much less known yet fascinating transformation of the country. As a project manager for SHER, an engineering consulting company involved in hydropower and water infrastructure projects, Robin was directly involved in the development of Rwanda for almost 3 years and has first-hand witnessed and lived part of this story.
Robin is an INSEAD MBA Graduate. After having worked for several years in Rwanda, Robin now wants to offer some insights into this country’s fascinating economic and social transformation.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

[@marcfabre288]

Malgré tous les progrès extraordinaires, ça n'enlève en rien à ce qui s'est passé en 94. Une telle cruauté, une telle lâcheté .... et une telle attitude inexcusable des militaires étrangers présents déjà avant le début du génocide, abandonnant toute cette population à une mort certaine. Plus jamais ça .... ?? Non, les états ne pensent qu'à leurs intérêts, à leur profit !! Voyez ce qui se passe depuis plus de 20 ans dans l'Est du Congo ??? Les centaines de milliers de morts, chaque année, laissent la communauté imperturbable. Intérêt et profits, la seule religion des pays dits développés ... combien de milliards pour l'Ukraine en quelques jours ?? Combien de milliards pour l'Afrique en deux décennies ??? Et ils parlent du droit des hommes ???? Du cinéma, rien d'autre. Intérêts et profits ....

[@bandijk5934]

Rwanda's economic prosperity is remarkable, but what about the costs? Freedom of speech is non-existant, critique at the RPF-regime is silenced by bullets....

[@ByzantineCapitalManagement]

Still better than other democratic nations with no prosperity.

[@bennythomas4713]

If you or your kids have no education, no access to necessities, what kind of speech will you have ?

[@mugiranezamagnifique168]

Nice response to fake news I've ever seen
