Peace Through Business: How Women in Rwanda and Afghanistan Are Rebuilding Nations Through Entrepreneurship In this special episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I continue our series spotlighting Peace Through Business, a remarkable program empowering women entrepreneurs in Afghanistan, Rwanda, and beyond. The stories are profound, the impact undeniable, and the lessons universal: when women rise, entire nations begin to heal and prosper. As a corporate anthropologist and Blue Ocean Strategist, I want to remind us at the start: “When you invest in a woman entrepreneur, you invest in her family, her community, and her country's future.” This conversation brings together Monica Smiley, publisher of Enterprising Women Magazine; Chantal Munanayire, Peace Through Business Program Director for Rwanda, Uganda, Canada, and the UK; and Manisha Wafeq, who leads the Afghanistan initiative. Each share not only how the program works but how it transforms lives — economically, socially, and spiritually. Creating Peace Through Business When Enterprising Women Foundation assumed stewardship of Peace Through Business in 2024, it became the natural extension of its mission to empower women globally. Monica Smiley explains that Enterprising Women began 25 years ago as a publication to celebrate women entrepreneurs but soon evolved into a global movement. “About 12 years ago,” she recalls, “we launched the Enterprising Women Foundation to mentor girls in underserved communities across 30 U.S. cities. Then, by inheriting the Peace Through Business program, we broadened our mission — from helping American women entrepreneurs to supporting women rebuilding countries after conflict.” Originally founded by Dr. Terry Neese at the request of former First Lady Laura Bush, the Peace Through Business program provides an intensive education in entrepreneurship, leadership, and civic responsibility. It began in Afghanistan, where women were often excluded from public life, and expanded into Rwanda, a country rebuilding its social and economic fabric after the 1994 genocide. Monica remembers traveling to Rwanda in 2014 and again in 2018. “The transformation in just four years was stunning,” she says. “There were new hotels, a thriving convention center, and a new sense of hope. Women who once dreamed of a single business now run two or three. They are not waiting to be rescued — they are building the future themselves.” Chantal's Journey: From Survivor to Mentor Few embody that spirit more than Chantal Munanayire. A survivor of Rwanda's genocide, Chantal rebuilt her life — and her country — one business at a time. In 2009, she broke barriers by opening the first woman-owned car repair and paint shop in Kigali, the capital city. “When I began, I didn't even know what a business plan was,” she says with a laugh. “I was passionate but directionless. Through Peace Through Business, I learned to plan, to lead, and to see my company as separate from myself. That gave me freedom — and power.” Today, Chantal runs the program across several countries and has mentored hundreds of women. “The women who come to us are determined but often afraid,” she explains. “We teach them to turn that fear into focus. Once they succeed, they return to mentor others. That's how we build a sisterhood.” She shares stories of women who began as small vendors and now own supermarkets, or dairy farmers who built shopping centers. “When one woman thrives, she brings ten others along,” Chantal says. “That's how you build a country.” Education, Mentorship, and Advocacy Peace Through Business unfolds in three powerful stages: Education– Ten weeks of in-country classes covering marketing, finance, leadership, and business planning. Leadership Development– A cultural and professional exchange in the U.S., where top graduates attend the Enterprising Women Conference to meet mentors and global leaders. Pay It Forward– Graduates return home to mentor others, advocate for policy reform, and expand the reach of women in leadership. As Manisha Wafeq explains, “This is not a one-week seminar. It's a life-changing journey. Our women become educators, activists, and community builders. They learn that business is not only about profit — it's about peace. And after they graduate, they pay their knowledge forward to other women and join our alumni association.” A Call to Action: Supporting Women Who Change the World The episode closes with a powerful reflection from Monica and Andi: sustainable change requires participation. The program's impact depends on mentorship, funding, and global awareness. “This is a Blue Ocean in action,” says Andi Simon. “These women are not competing in crowded markets. They're creating new ones — new industries, new opportunities, new futures.” Monica adds, “We've given the Enterprising Women of the Year award to one Afghan and one Rwandan woman annually for nearly two decades. Seeing them stand on stage in front of hundreds of cheering peers brings me to tears every time. But we need more hands and hearts to keep the program thriving.” Every contribution — financial or personal — helps sustain the work. Donations go directly to scholarships, training, and travel for participants. Mentors provide guidance and connection, bridging continents through compassion and shared purpose.

Why These Stories Matter For Andi Simon, this episode isn't just another interview — it's a reflection of what anthropology teaches us about change: that transformation begins when people reimagine what's possible. “Change happens,” Andi concludes, “when we stop waiting for permission and start creating possibilities. These women are doing exactly that. They're rewriting the story of what it means to lead, to heal, and to build peace through business.” Listen in to our YouTube Video:

I'm honoured to be joined by a remarkable humanitarian leader and visionary, Shachar Zahavi. Shachar lives on a Moshav near Tel Aviv with his wife, Rachel, and their two children, but his life's work has taken him far beyond Israel's borders. His humanitarian journey began in 1994, when, instead of setting off on the traditional post-army travels, he was moved by the horrors of the Rwandan genocide and organized relief efforts. That choice set him on a lifelong path of service. In 2001, he co-founded IsraAID, bringing together Israeli aid organizations under one umbrella. As executive director for 16 years, Shachar grew IsraAID into a globally recognized NGO, providing vital support in over 60 countries, responding to crises like the Sri Lanka tsunami in 2004, the Haiti earthquake in 2010, and more recently, the war in Ukraine. Never one to stand still, in 2019, Shachar co-founded SmartAID with Ron Zeltzer. This groundbreaking organization harnesses cutting-edge technology, drones, solar power, fintech, and more, to revolutionize disaster relief and build resilience in communities from Afghanistan to California, from Gaza to Israel's kibbutzim after October 7th. Through all of this, Shachar has embodied a vision of humanitarianism rooted in independence, collaboration, and human dignity. On a personal note, I had the privilege of working with Shachar in the early 2000s, when Ve'ahavta was active in international humanitarian work. It was always a pleasure to partner with him and to work together in repairing our world. What You'll Discover in This Episode: Shachar's story of becoming a leading force in humanitarian response, from Rwanda to Gaza The founding of IsraAID and SmartAID, and how technology is revolutionizing the way aid reaches those most vulnerable Insights into challenges of disaster relief, from fundraising and logistics to partnering across cultures and nations Powerful memories of global service, including a partnership with Ve'ahavta in the early 2000s The personal roots of humanitarian vision: family, collaboration, and the spirit of tikkun olam (“repairing the world”) About Shachar Zahavi: Since 1994, Shachar has answered the call to humanitarian action, organizing relief efforts for the Rwandan genocide and co-founding IsraAID in 2001. Under his leadership, IsraAID became a world-recognized NGO, responding to global crises from tsunamis to earthquakes to conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza. In 2019, Shachar co-founded SmartAID, bringing breakthrough technologies, solar power, drones, fintech, and more, into the heart of modern disaster relief. His mission embodies independence, collaboration, and human dignity, inspiring hope and practical change wherever disaster strikes.

On Tuesday, in a groundbreaking new report, the United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory officially concluded that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. This comes ahead of the members of the commission stepping down later this year, after announcing their resignations this summer amid the US's escalating attacks on UN personnel.“The Commission concludes that the State of Israel bears responsibility for the failure to prevent genocide, the commission of genocide, and the failure to punish genocide against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip,” the report says.In this exclusive interview, Mehdi speaks with two of the commissioners behind this report: Chair Navi Pillay of South Africa and commissioner Chris Sidoti, one of Australia's most prominent human rights lawyers.In the interview, Pillay – who previously served as president of the UN's International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda – immediately draws parallels between genocide in Gaza and the Rwandan genocide.“It's when I came to the deliberate shooting of the single standing building where the fertility clinic was and the embryos. That immediately reminded me of the Rwanda genocide where I was a judge and where they ripped the bellies of pregnant women, pulled out the fetuses because they wanted to kill off the entire Tutsi group,” Pillay recounts.Pillay and Sidoti also both point out that unlike the Rwandan genocide, Palestinians in Gaza do not have neighboring countries they can escape to.“There is nowhere that the people of Gaza can go to escape this slaughter,” Sidoti tells Mehdi. “And yet the slaughter has continued.”The commissioners also address criticism that their report does not cover Hamas's war crimes, with Pillay noting that the commission has addressed Hamas's war crimes in previous reports.“It doesn't mean to me that every time you have to strike some kind of balance as if the parties are equal,” she explains. “They are not equal. One is the occupier and the other is occupied.”You can watch the full interview above to hear Mehdi press the commissioners on why it has taken almost two years for them to declare that Israel is committing a genocide, and why Israel prevented their commission from investigating claims of rape and sexual violence from both sides. He also asks whether they fear retaliation from the US for their report, after the Trump administration's sanctioning of ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan and UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese.If you're not a paid subscriber, please do consider upgrading your subscription today and supporting independent journalism.

In this soul-stirring episode of The Zaka Podcast, we sit down with Rwandan-born author Cedric Muhikira, the brilliant mind behind Grow Your Roots Where You Land and Libaax. A self-taught writer and former youth leader, Cedric shares his deeply personal journey of immigration, identity, and the resilience it takes to carve out belonging in a new country. From his early days in Rwanda to rebuilding his life in America at age 25, Cedric opens up about navigating cultural fusion, loneliness, and the power of storytelling to humanize the immigrant experience.This conversation is packed with insight for anyone who has ever felt caught between two worlds. Cedric reflects on the importance of mingling across communities, advocating for yourself as a creator, and finding your voice no matter your background
Send us a textDarkness has many faces—some human, some decidedly not. What happens when evil transcends mere human capacity? When does hatred cross the line into demonic territory?Drawing parallels between historical atrocities like the My Lai Massacre, Hitler's Holocaust, and the Rwandan genocide, Certain evils simply cannot be explained away as human failings alone. "If you look at the My Lai Massacre and walk away saying that was just human beings messing up, you're out of touch with reality.”We journey into present-day Nigeria, where three million Christians face systematic extermination by Islamic terrorists crossing unprotected borders. Through harrowing firsthand accounts of survivors describing attackers shouting "Allahu Akbar" while slaughtering entire families, the spiritual dimension of this conflict becomes unmistakable. This isn't just political or ethnic tension—it's spiritual warfare manifesting in our physical world.The conversation takes a fascinating turn as we examine the tension between God's sovereignty and human free will. Using Biblical examples like Pharaoh and Judas. Yet this freedom comes with accountability—we remain responsible for our choices and will face judgment accordingly. This delicate balance between divine foreknowledge and human agency provides a framework for understanding both personal temptations and global evils.Whether you're battling your own spiritual struggles or seeking to understand the darker forces at work in our world, this episode offers both wisdom and warning. As C.S. Lewis cautioned, we can err by making too much of the devil—or dangerously underestimating him. Join us in this crucial conversation, and learn how to recognize, confront, and overcome the spiritual battles we all face. The darkness is real, but so is our authority in Christ to stand against it.Support the show
In Rwanda today, girls are completing school at higher rates than boys, yet young men make up over 85% of prisoners and more than 60% of drug-related arrests.

Rwanda has confirmed it will accept up to 250 migrants from the US, in a deal agreed with President Donald Trump's administration. Under the scheme the deportees would be given "workforce training, health care, and accommodation to jump start their lives in Rwanda", according to Rwandan government spokesperson Yolande Makolo. Human rights experts have raised concerns that removals to a nation that is not a migrant's place of origin - known as a third country - could violate international law.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Africa Report Correspondent ,Crystal Orderson about two major developments on the continent. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, M23 rebels and the government have signed a declaration in Qatar aimed at ending the conflict in eastern Congo, an area long plagued by violence linked to the 1994 Rwandan genocide. While the deal, brokered by Qatar and the US, marks progress, uncertainty remains over the withdrawal of M23 and Rwandan forces, with formal peace talks expected to begin on August 8. Meanwhile in Zimbabwe, Nelson Chamisa is making a political comeback by launching a new movement, deliberately not a party, to challenge ZANU-PF’s grip on power in the 2028 elections. Analysts are divided on whether this non-traditional approach can overcome Zimbabwe’s entrenched, military-backed political system. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

There is a chilling pattern of how governments have systematically dehumanized, displaced, and exterminated entire groups of people throughout history using bureaucratic steps.Drawing from real atrocities such as the Holocaust, the Khmer Rouge regime, the Rwandan genocide, and the Armenian genocide, as well as injustices in U.S. history like the internment of Japanese Americans and the treatment of Native and African Americans, I trace a common structure of how oppression builds: with labels, propaganda, silence, and “legal” processes. Societal fear and political power can normalize cruelty. So here's your reminder of the responsibility to notice, speak out, and act before it's too late. Recognize familiar patterns and refuse to let history repeat itself.Get in touch on HorrorStory.com

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Alpha Nkuranga about her deeply powerful and unforgettable memoir, Born to Walk: My Journey of Trials and Resilience (Goose Lane Editions, 2024). “My grandparents used to tell me Rwanda is a country unlike any other, and I knew they spoke the truth. Blessed with majestic mountains and breathtaking valleys, it is a sacred and spiritual land. And yet Rwandan men drenched the land in blood in acts of hate so horrific that the stains of those three years will not fade in one hundred lifetimes.” At the age of eight, Alpha Nkuranga made a fateful decision. With war raging around her, she grabbed the hand of her younger brother, Elijah, and ran from her grandparents' home. When they came to a swamp, they hid until it was safe to escape. Weeks later, they joined a group of refugees, who were fleeing to Tanzania. “If I kept walking,” Alpha remembers thinking, “I could tell my story.” Nkuranga emigrated to Canada more than a decade later. She now works with women and children who face abuse and homelessness. In Born to Walk, she tells a remarkable story of resistance and survival. About Alpha Nkuranga: Alpha Nkuranga fled her village as an eight-year-old during the Rwandan Civil War of 1994 and subsequently lived in refugee camps in Tanzania and Uganda, where she overcame the odds to graduate high school and attend university. She came to Canada as a refugee in 2010 and currently lives in Kitchener, Ontario, where she works for Women's Crisis Services of Waterloo Region. Learn more about your ad choices.

"Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.” Wake up from your drunken stupor, as is right, and do not go on sinning. For some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame" (1 Co 15:33–35).In this sermon, Caleb warns against deception, using the 1938 War of the Worlds radio broadcast to illustrate how easily people can be misled. Historical examples like Nazi propaganda, Mao's Great Leap Forward, and Rwandan radio lies show the devastating consequences of believing falsehoods. The sermon emphasizes that what we believe shapes our thoughts, actions, and worship, drawing from A.W. Tozer's insight that our view of God is paramount. Paul's three imperatives guide believers to avoid deception: keep good company, as bad influences corrupt morals; be sober-minded, rejecting false teaching to live righteously; and know God deeply, as ignorance of Him leads to spiritual drift. The resurrection anchors this call to clarity, urging listeners to align their lives with gospel truth. The sermon closes with an invitation to the Lord's Table, encouraging reflection on Christ's historical and personal resurrection, which empowers believers to resist deception and live faithfully.
In a desperate attempt at a last stand to halt the Rwandan backed army of Laurent Desire Kabila, Mobutu hires mercenaries composed of members of the infamous 10th Sabotage Detachment of the Bosnian Serb army, responsible for some of the worst atrocities in the Bosnian war, under the command of French intelligence asset "Yugo Dominic".

Today, we're speaking with Matt Bowles, a longtime Palestinian human rights activist.With a Master's Degree in International Peace and Conflict Resolution, Matt has over two decades of human rights and activism experience. He led activist delegations to monitor human rights abuses in the north of Ireland, co-founded an organization to stop U.S. aid to Israel, organized solidarity delegations to the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and did solidarity work with the indigenous Zapatista communities in Chiapas, Mexico.In the past few years, many more people around the world have tuned in to the injustice that has been happening in Palestine for the past 75 years. If you want to understand the origins of this injustice AND what you can do to help stop it, this episode is for you. I first became immersed in the struggle for Palestinian liberation in 2017, when I visited the West Bank and saw the Israeli soldiers at checkpoints, the humiliation of people, the treatment of Arabs like second-class citizens, and the Israeli system of apartheid with my own eyes. Matt has been working on Palestinian solidarity since 1998. It has been so helpful to hear the perspective of someone with this much longer view on the struggle.

In this episode of the Kansas City Underground podcast, Brian and Cory interview Justin Nkundabagenzi from Rwanda, discussing his journey from experiencing the Rwandan genocide to becoming a mobilizer of disciple makers. The conversation explores the importance of prayer, the transition from traditional church models to disciple-making movements, and the current state of the movement in Rwanda, highlighting the significant growth and impact of ordinary people spreading the gospel. Justin emphasizes the need for dependence on the Holy Spirit and the importance of leadership development in sustaining the movement.
The last few years have seen a dramatic shift in the balance of power in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), with Rwandan-backed militias advancing in North Kivu, Ugandan forces launching cross-border operations, and Western powers quietly increasing their presence in the region. What was once considered a forgotten conflict is now emerging as a new front in the global competition for influence, driven not just by security concerns, but by the region's immense mineral wealth, critical for everything from electric vehicles to modern electronics. This week, we sit down with our expert panel to unpack who actually controls eastern Congo, why this strip of land has become so strategically valuable to outside powers, and how the local conflict is fast becoming a global contest between rival blocs. On the panel this week: - Hugh Kinsella Cunningham (DRC Photojournalist) - Alex Vines (Chatham House) - Michael Rubin (AEI) Intro - 00:00 PART I - 03:30 PART II - 40:38 PART III - 1:02:51 Outro - 1:33:03 Follow the show on https://x.com/TheRedLinePod Follow Michael on https://x.com/MikeHilliardAus Support the show at: https://www.patreon.com/theredlinepodcast Submit Questions and Join the Red Line Discord Server at: https://www.theredlinepodcast.com/discord For more info, please visit: https://www.theredlinepodcast.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

The US economy shrank in the first three months of 2025, with GDP falling 0.3 per cent, partly because of a surge in imports in anticipation of President Trump's tariffs. Mr Trump says growth is on track; we hear from an economist.Also in the programme: the US and Ukraine appear poised to sign a revised minerals deal; 50 years after the fall of Saigon, we hear from the former US marine who flew one of the last helicopters out of Vietnam; plus the Rwandan vet who's just won a prize for saving the majestic grey-crowned crane.(IMAGE: US President Trump hosts Cabinet Meeting at the White House, Washington, USA - 30 Apr 2025 / CREDIT: Ken Cedeno/Pool/EPA-EFE/REX/Shutterstock)
