Set amidst gentle rolling hills, with manicured lawns and immaculate palm tree lined avenues, Kigali is a beautiful city and a wonderful place to live. It is also considered as one of the safest, cleanest, and greenest cities in the World. The fast-paced development that has completely transformed the city over the past few years gives it a vibrant and exciting character that infects all who visit.
This dynamic country is rapidly becoming a hub for business travelers hosting conferences, conventions and exhibitions. With major international conferences such as the World Economic Forum, the MO Ibrahim Governance Weekend and the Youth Connekt Forum to, name a few, Kigali regularly hosts iconic world leaders and global influencers of all stripes. The opportunity to attend some of these events and network in these spaces is one more reason to study in Rwanda.
State-of-the-art facilities like the Kigali Convention Center and the Kigali Arena, stand out for their impressive modern standards and for the beauty of their architecture, which pays homage to Rwanda’s unique culture, making it one of the leading destinations for the MICE sector in Africa.

The country’s rich biodiversity includes majestic mountain gorillas in the north, mighty lions, stately elephants and graceful giraffes in the Savanah plains to the east, Africa’s oldest rainforests and panoramic tea plantations in the south and the picturesque turquoise waters of lake Kivu to the west. The opportunity to work in world class hotels and resorts, operated by luxury groups such as the One & Only, Singita, Radisson, Mantis, Marriot makes Rwanda the ideal choice for those interested in a career in this sector.
