Born on 15.12.1988 in Ngozi northen Province of Burundi, Pierre Emmanuel Ngendakumana, completed his BA degree in English Language and Literature at the University of Burundi in 2015.
His first experience in Journalism started the same year, shortly before graduation, at Burundi National Broadcast RTNB where he learned reporting techniques for both Radio and Television.
He also volunteered as a reporter at Radio Scolaire Nderagakura early in 2016.
He joined Iwacu Press Group in 2016 chiefly as an Editor of the online English news service- IWACU English News | The voices of Burundi and as a reporter and translator for the French service of the same Press Group until 2020.
Pierre Emmanuel has always been fascinated by Journalism since his early age.
He is convinced that the investment in the capacity of a new generation of Burundian journalists in particular and African journalists in general is critical if justice and accountability are to be re-established.
