Team Rwanda Shined at PAMO 2021
In June 2021, six outstanding students participated in the National Awards Ceremony for Team Rwanda following their remarkable performance at the Pan-African Mathematical Olympiad (PAMO) 2021.
Despite it being Rwanda’s first time in this prestigious continental competition, Team Rwanda won 3 bronze medals, achieved first place in East Africa, and ranked 7th in Africa with a team score of 61.
The students who represented Rwanda were:
Munezero Honorine – Lycée Notre Dame de Cîteaux
Akimana Nadine – ES Byimana
Abayo Joseph Desire – ES Byimana
Mugisha Abdulkarim – RIVIERA High School
Munezero Jean Nepo – PS Ndera
Uwase Kelly – GS Saint André
This achievement was made possible through the dedication of their teachers, coaches, and the strong support from AIMS Rwanda and the University of Rwanda – Department of Mathematics.
Now the question remains:
Are these bright and talented students still supported for them to keep the pace?
