== About Me  ==
I'm Kirenga Liliane, a Rwandan Physiotherapist. I've been leaving with my family in Dubai; in the United Arab Emirates for the past 4 and half years.
I'm a physiotherapist from the beautiful land of thousand hills; Rwanda. I hold a Masters of Science (MSc) Degree in Physiotherapy, obtained from the University of the Western Cape in South Africa. I worked in different hospital settings and have a special interest in managing pediatric disorders and musculoskeletal conditions.      I 'm also interested in raising awareness about the benefits of physical activity, health promotion as well as the role of physiotherapy and rehabilitation.
I hold a MSc Degree in Physiotherapy from the University of the Western Cape in South Africa (2010). I'm member of the Rwanda Physical Therapy Organisation.
My last job in Rwanda was with the Rwanda Military Hospital where i worked for 4 years and during my last year there, I was the Head of Physiotherapy Department.
Throughout my career,


I've had the opportunity to attend different scientific conferences and congresses among which WCPT congresses in Africa (Nairobi, 2012) as well as in Asia (Singapore, 2015) with paper presentation for both of them.
I also believe that giving back to the community through outreach activities is the best way to empower people, specifically people with disabilities but also the poor in general.
I have also been able to work with great physiotherapists and mentors and co-write two articles that have been published.
Although i haven't been able to get a job here, i make sure to upgrade my knowledge by taking different courses and trying to attend different conferences such as the Biennial Emirates Physiotherapy Conference. I have particular interest for pediatric rehabilitation, musculoskeletal injuries, physical activity and health promotion by giving back to the community through outreach activities.


This volunteer orientation course is an opportunity for me to challenge myself by developing writing skills  as well as confidence that can help me in the new orientation that i want to take of a Non Clinical Physiotherapy career.
