AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Visit Rwanda x Aston Villa: Rwanda’s tourism board, Visit Rwanda, has become Aston Villa’s new front-of-shirt partner from the 2026/27 season in a reported £20m-a-year deal, also naming it official tourism partner and coffee provider, with branding across men’s, women’s and academy kits plus fan and football development activations. Human Rights Backlash: Amnesty International UK immediately warned the partnership could be used for “sportswashing,” citing Rwanda’s human rights record and allegations linked to the DRC conflict, urging the Premier League club to “call it out.” Visa-Free Travel Updates (Europe): Spain announced visa-free entry for short stays (up to 90 days in 180) for citizens of nine CARICOM countries and also extended the same access to eight African countries including Rwanda. Visa-Free Travel Updates (Africa): Tanzania published its 2026 visa exemption list, with 21 African countries eligible for visa-free entry including Rwanda; Uganda also released its 2026 visa-free list featuring Rwanda. Ebola Watch (Regional Travel Risk): In the DRC, Ebola deaths reportedly doubled in just over two weeks as confirmed cases surpassed 2,000, with the outbreak spreading to additional provinces.
