Borrowed Talent

Rwandans call them “borrowed talent” The media calls them “social entrepreneurs” People of faith call them “a new generation of missionaries” You can call them “an investment in a better world”. What is “borrowed talent”? It is Rwanda’s innovative way of drawing smart, humble, and committed individuals from around the world to assist in the development of their country.
