Wrapping up the Ubumwe 2.0 project training with creativity and planning! 🎨✨ On the final day, teachers explored ‘Art with my Hands,’ engaging in kitenge designs, pottery, sculpting, and mural creation. Participants are now developing school-based action plans to sustain the impact, with a post-training survey conducted to measure progress from the pre-training survey earlier this week. #ArtWithImpact
