| Project Detail |
Rwanda is committed to drive sustainable development and climate resilience. In line with Vision 2050, which aims to position Rwanda as a high-income, knowledge-based economy, the government is strengthening green finance mechanisms to enable investments and support this transformation. Financial resources are mobilised through the Rwanda Green Fund (formerly known as FONERWA), to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient economy, ensuring that businesses, institutions and communities have access to sustainable funding opportunities. A key instrument of the Rwanda Green Fund, Intego Rwanda’s NDC facility, funds public institutions initiatives that contribute to Rwanda’s climate commitments, as outlined in its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC). Launched in 2022 with financial support from the Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW), it received news commitments in 2024 from the Government of Luxembourg and Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO). An initial call pre-selected 33 high-potential project proposals, from which the 10 most advanced projects form the first cohort set to begin implementation in early 2025. These projects focus on key areas such as climate resilience in rural districts, the restoration of natural spaces like urban wetlands, and energy efficiency in buildings and facilities. This project represents EUR 4,000,000 contribution from the Luxembourg Ministry of Environment Climate and Biodiversity (MECB) to Intego. By investing in climate adaptation and greenhouse gas emissions mitigation projects, Intego plays a crucial role in achieving Rwanda’s ambitious climate goals. |
