Paper Crown Institute is a non-profit social enterprise registered in both Rwanda and Canada, that works with youth to transform gender norms, foster leadership and create lasting social change.
We work directly with adolescent boys and girls to break the intergenerational cycle of gender discrimination and violence, and spark the process of meaningful social change.
Our Mission
To empower young people through participatory dialogue and community leadership, taking a holistic approach to social change that openly addresses the problem of gender inequality and fosters a permanent change in mindset among boys and girls.
Our Vision
A world in which the beliefs and attitudes that promote gender discrimination and violence are permanently transformed for the better, led by the efforts of youth within their local communities, where the voices and lives of girls and women are seen as equally valuable to boys and men.
