This capacity statement summarizes World Vision’s water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) programming in Rwanda, highlighting four priority intervention areas: water supply and quality; sanitation and hygiene; governance and finance; and water security and resilience. World Vision established a presence in Rwanda in 1994 following the genocide against the Tutsi. In 2000, World Vision transitioned from humanitarian response to the implementation of development programs in Rwanda. World Vision currently operates in 29 of the 30 districts in Rwanda. Our new strategy in Rwanda (2021 to 2025) targets 3 million of the most vulnerable people for services. World Vision began scaling up its Rwanda WASH Program in 2012 and implements WASH across 13 districts, as well as all refugee camps and transit centers in the country. Our WASH strategy in Rwanda is focused on universal water coverage in collaboration with the government and other partners.
We are proud to be reviewed and held accountable by these independent third-party organizations:
