CorpsAfrica/Rwanda

Last Sunday, our trainees set out on a refreshing adventure to Akagera National Park, where they were captivated by Rwanda's stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife. Surrounded by such natural beauty, they were reminded of the crucial responsibility to protect these ecosystems and the species that call them home. Let’s work together to safeguard these treasures for future generations! #ThisIsCorpsAfrica #AkageraGameDrive #PST2024

#InPictures: Last Saturday, our trainees joined the communities of Nyamweru and Ruhengeri Villages in Nyarugenge District for Umuganda. Together, they cleaned road drainages, enhancing a healthier and safer environment. They also constructed kitchen gardens, ensuring access to nutritious produce at home, and built eco-friendly stoves to promote sustainable living. #ThisIsCorpsAfrica #LocalsHelpingLocals #PST24

Come rain or shine, the Rugi and Rutindo communities will not let their goals go unattained! Last week, these communities, facilitated by Volunteers Clementine Rahayi and Emmanuel NIYONKURU in Musanze District, harvested 4,163 kg of Irish potatoes from 1.5 hectares of land, generating 2,694,000 RWF to be reinvested in their Tamarillo farming project, which currently has 3,340 trees. The Irish potatoes serve as a secondary activity, supporting the expansion of the Tamarillo farming project. Additionally, members are involved in various income-generating activities to diversify their income streams. #ThisIsCorpsAfrica

Our Pre-Service Training is about more than just learning—it's about making a real difference. Yesterday, as part of Community-Based Training, our trainees repaired three homes for families devastated by natural disasters in Kanyinya Sector, Nyarugenge District. This real-world experience allows them to facilitate the resilience of the community and pave the way for sustainable change. #ThisIsCorpsAfrica
