We are Rwanda Climate Change and Development Network, responding to climate change and acting on climate emergency.
3.6 billion people already live in areas highly susceptible to climate change.
Earth’s temperature has risen by an average of 0.11° in recent years
We are committed to working towards a sustainable and resilient future for Rwandan communities
Our 2030 goal
Our main goal
To see communities capable of coping with national and global climate change challenges for sustainable development.
Our aspiration
To be a lead network in Rwanda that advocates and build capacities for community resilience to climate change, justice and equitable development.
Our approach
Environmental stewardship, sustainability, climate justice, transparency, collaboration, innovation, community engagement, education, adaptability, ethical practices, empowerment, and a global perspective in its mission to address climate change and promote sustainable development.
OUR IMPACT
We partnered with TROCAIRE to strengthen agroecology for climate change resilience by empowering communities by building their capacity and knowledge in climate-resilient agriculture, training sessions, workshops, and farmer-to-farmer knowledge exchange.
Our work with TROCAIRE involved supporting communities to become aware of climate change impacts, Rwandan climate targets, and the communities’ potential contribution to mitigating GHG emissions and adapting to climate change effects. We achieve this through awareness-raising measures, capacity building, and exchanges of lessons learned, facilitated through member NGOs of the RCCDN network.
