    Excellent report! It's always refreshing to see positive reports on Africa in general, especially when it comes to science, technology and innovation. I hope to see more of these reports. By the way, do you guys have a playlist for your Global Ideas videos? Thanks!

    it works because they have proper law enforcement there. It would never work in Nigeria or congo or sierra leone

      He was born in Burundi, left during a war and went to the US. But he came back to Africa and went to Rwanda because they are encouraging entrepreneurship.

    a good start, for sure. but hearing that $100 per month is double the average income tells me nothing..more thorough reporting *please:*
    what does $100 vs. $200 per month do for an individual??..a married couple??..or a couple with 2 or 3 children??..what about a single mother??..no idea if the kiosk operator had more than the 3 kids we saw..or if she has a husband helping her and the children financially??..where was the baby during her work day?? meaning: the kiosk enables her to afford childcare??.. honestly wondering if kiosk operaters are able to 'get ahead' within a year or two..or at all vs. having only a little relief each month.

      Government schools are mosly free, parents just pay for certain kits and uniform, and Healthcare is cheap as they have to pay $1 to $4 per year in order to access the national Healthcare that covers 80% of medication and 100% for Pregnancy related services and consultants.
      For lower class, they don't pay that, the Government supports them, electricity is also priced according to social groups, the rich pay abit higher and those in the lowest group don't pay.
      in Rwanda $100 can pay your one room average house rent and remain with $50.
