Rwandan Laptop Sleeve is vibrant, quilted and offers padded protection for your laptop. You can carry it as a clutch or in your favorite tote, pack or briefcase. Secured with a large fabric-covered button closure and available in the classic Rwandan fabric known as “wheat flower” – simple flowers and leaves in warm tones of orange and navy with ruby highlights, swaying against a background of soft wheat- the inside is lined in navy blue.
The women of the INEZA cooperative are survivors of genocidal rape, but rather than focusing on the horrors of the Rwandan genocide they are speaking to the power of their communities and working towards a better future for themselves, their families and their nation.
INEZA was founded by WE-ACTX to develop a sustainable source of income for women on HIV treatment. The women who make up the cooperative are paid weekly wages, receive transportation and food supplements, and are provided with HIV care and treatment – and yoga!
WE-ACTX is an international community-based initiative whose mission is to increase women’s and children’s access to HIV testing, care, treatment, support, education and training in resource-limited settings at the grassroots level. They are committed to helping survivors of genocidal rape and sexual violence and to empower HIV-positive women and girls to take charge of their lives and become leaders in the fight against AIDS.
