Unfolding
Born in a bushland and raised in a refugee camp in Uganda, Jackline Kamanzi’s life began in uncertainty and displacement. From fragile beginnings, she rose as Rwanda’s top‑performing girl and emerged as a leader, contributing to national, regional, and global impact.
In Unfolding, Kamanzi recounts the story of her path to leadership in a Rwanda rebuilding after the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. Her journey honors a father’s protection, a mother’s hope, family resilience, and lifelong partnerships. This is a story of faith and intentional leadership that turns adversity into purpose.
