STORYLINE:
Umusambi had been an average village on the outskirts of Kigali, the capital of Rwanda, until 2020 when a sanctuary was launched for birds with handicaps as a result of captivity.
Umusambi village has shot to stardom globally by providing a conducive environment for more than 50 grey-crowned cranes. The sanctuary, with an area of roughly 21 hectares, has become a popular destination that draws tourists from Europe, Africa, and Asia who enjoy learning about conservation work and the importance of protecting natural environments.
