Meet Gaspard Twagirayezu, a Digital Changemaker who is
demystifying STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) for
Rwandan students, shaping them to be STEM innovators of the future! Gaspard inspires youth through tech fairs,
creation clubs and science camps, where he and his team teach students that the
STEM field is interesting, fun and can lead to amazing job opportunities in the
future. He does all this work through his sustainable social enterprise,
Creation Hill.
Gaspard is the winner of the 2013 Tigo Digital Changemakers
competition which included a grant from Tigo and a spot in the Reach for Change
Incubator. in the Incubator, Gaspard received trainings in strategic planning,
financial management, communications and more to ensure that Creation Hill can
scale to reach as many students as possible, and remain sustainable for years
to come! Since 2013, Gaspard has impacted thousands of Rwandan students, who
have gone on to study in STEM fields in post-secondary and who will become
scientists, engineers and IT professionals leading Rwanda's development
throughout their careers.
