Kibingo Health Centre serves more than 2,500 people each month, providing essential healthcare to families in Rutsiro District. Through its partnership with the Government of Rwanda and the local community, World Vision Rwanda has strengthened the health centre by improving infrastructure, expanding nutrition education, and supporting community-led efforts to combat child malnutrition. From constructing a covered walkway and a nutrition demonstration kitchen to implementing Professional Umuganda and the Positive Deviance/Hearth (PDH) model, these interventions have contributed to a reduction in child malnutrition from 32% to 16% while empowering caregivers with practical skills to keep their children healthy.

Adolphe’s remarkable recovery from severe undernutrition highlights the transformative impact of World Vision Rwanda’s Professional Umuganda initiative. After being identified as underweight during community nutrition screening, he received support through the Iziko rehabilitation programme, where his caregiver gained practical knowledge on nutrition, hygiene, and childcare. Today, Adolphe is a healthy, active child a testament to the power of community-led action. His story reflects the broader success of Professional Umuganda in Rutsiro District, where collaboration among health workers, local leaders, and community members has helped reduce the prevalence of underweight children from 33% to 20% between December 2024 and April 2026, advancing the ENOUGH Campaign’s goal of ensuring every child survives, grows, and thrives.
