You Should Know: Ni Nyampinga

We report on what’s going with fashion glossies over the world on a daily basis, but we all know that the print world is about much more than our favorite supermodels, what stylish celebs are wearing, and what’s strutting down the world’s catwalks. With the rise of all things digital, many have said print is dead and in many cases, the numbers have proved them right. Many magazines have folded, but one that has risen out of these computerized times is Ni Nyampinga:

Ni Nyampinga isn’t just a quarterly magazine, but is an all-around digital platform—also including a weekly radio show. Its central aim? To help create and foster an empowered mindset in the minds of Rwandan teenage girls with a focus on achievement and leadership.

The goal of having the reach of Ni Nyampinga span the entire nation of Rwanda started almost four years ago with the partnership of The Girl Effect and Girl Hub. Both of the organizations aim to better girls’ emotional, mental, and physical health, schooling, and security, as well as providing more opprtunities across the board.

There are some very powerful and pertinent topics being covered, from journalists who are as young as fourteen years old. How amazing is that?

Check out what the platform is up to here.
