Fausta is 22 and from Nyarugenge district. She lives with her parents and her young brother, she has graduated high school, and for the moment she works for Rwanda Women’s Network as a researcher, beside that she is a businesswoman and she loves it. She admires her mum a lot, she likes watching movies in her spare time. She enjoys being at home because it gives her more time to think on her business deeper.

“The people who I think were affected by COVID-19 were people who had jobs, for example, those that were selling clothes and shoes. These are items that are no longer in high demand. People still buy them but not as much as before. I would say the impact is that they no longer get many customers as they used to. That’s how I think they were affected.”
