	  FIG Foundation - Building a Sustainable Future
  |  Report from Jean Pierre HABIYAREMYEFIG Foundation Young Surveyor Grant Recipient to attend the FIG Congress 
	2018 in Istanbul, Turkey“I really appreciate your support 
				you have given me as FIG Foundation, it has helped me to 
				increase my knowledge, my network and to become global.  Many 
				Thanks for that”   I would like to share with you what I have gained in 
						2018 FIG Congress and FIG Young Surveyors Meeting. During attending my first FIG congress and FIG Young Surveyors Network 
	meeting there are many things I have gained as follows : In the Young Surveyors network meeting I have raised my networking where 
	I have gained more new friends from different countries that continue to 
	help me in my career until now. I have gained how I can organize any event and then I have applied what I 
	have learned in FIG YOUNG SURVEYORS NETWORK MEETING to prepare a General 
	Assembly of Rwanda Organization of Land Surveyors last Year which has been 
	successful meeting in my country as Surveyors Organization. I have self-confidence which is one of the fruit from FIG General 
	Assembly and FIG YOUNG SURVEYORS NETWORK MEETING.  Through my new 
	Mentors gained during FIG General Assembly now I have become more familiar 
	to take a speech in Public before it was not easy for me.  After FIG General Assembly,  I have also participated in the First 
	meeting of African Young Surveyors where I have made a presentation and 
	sharring experience we have in Rwanda where me and Tharcille we have 
	initiated  Rwandan Young Surveyors network. And I have created a group 
	WhatsApp for making together all Young Surveyors of my country. Now I have 
	around 150 Young Surveyors group members but I am planning to increase the 
	number through Sensibilization and attracting Young Surveyors to be in the 
	network  community. From that event also many Surveyors from my country have credibility of 
	me to be one of their Leaders. Other  more important things is that I have become FIG Correspondent 
	Member in Rwanda, from this Opportunity I must continue to fight until in 
	FIG Community we will have Rwanda Organization of Land Surveyors that I am 
	the one of founder and also now I am Secretary of that Organization. Now I 
	can be a good leader especially I can be organizer of any conference or 
	meeting, this encouragement and confidence are the fruits from FIG Young 
	Surveyors network meeting and FIG GENERAL ASSEMBLY. In General I have gained many things but more important are more 
	friends, knowledge on GLTN. My network has increased until now as my dream 
	is to become international Surveyor I will try to participate in other FIG 
	events if my  Finance issues are not too bad. I need to continue to encourage all Surveyors to be a part of FIG active 
	member.  I really appreciate your support you have given me as FIG Foundation, it 
	has helped me to increase my knowledge, my network and to become global. 
	 Many Thanks for that. Now I am preparing to attend FIG WORKING WEEK AT VIETNAM in two weeks 
	using my own registration fees and accommodation, it was not easy to take 
	this decision but because I highly like FIG as one Family , I am sure that I 
	will get a lot of experience and knowledge from that. I want to a good 
	surveyor so, I need also your deepest support in different ways you may 
	choose good one which will help me in my career either increasing my 
	studies, more training and also the works. /Jean Pierre HABIYAREMYERwanda
