In a joint statement on Wednesday, June 19, the two institutions said all community development projects undertaken by the security forces across the country had been handed over to their beneficiaries.
The programme was conducted in partnership with the local government, and was held under the theme: “30 Years of Liberation: Defence & Security Organs with the Community Partnering for Rwanda’s Development.”
The community development activities addressed human security issues in different sectors of health, environment, public infrastructure and utilities. Some of the projects undertaken include the construction of bridges, houses for disadvantaged families and Early Childhood Development (ECD) centres.
The security forces also offered support to cooperatives of Imboni z’Impinduka (Agents of Change), an initiative aimed at helping graduates from rehabilitation centres by providing coordination, orientation, monitoring, advocacy, and community support to contribute to crime prevention and advocate for their socio-economic opportunities.
“The CORwanda24 was in line with the RDF and RNP’s constitutional mandate to contribute to Rwanda’s socio-economic development,” the institutions said, adding, “RDF and RNP extend their gratitude and appreciation to the public for their unwavering support for the security and development of Rwanda.”
