Discover our impact in 2022

World Vision International Rwanda is delighted to present to you our 2022 Annual Report. This report highlights a summary of our achievements and impact from October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2022. In 2022, we achieved great results through collective effort, which transformed the lives of children through improved livelihoods, WASH, Child Protection and Education, among many others. We could not have achieved these milestones and many more without your generous support and partnership. Together, we believe we will achieve so much more, for the benefit of the vulnerable children, their families and communities.

As we mark this year's International Mother Earth Day on 22 April, Beatrice urges women to get involved in land restoration practices because their efforts are needed and they are equally capable.

Access to water has a huge impact on children’s well-being –particularly on their education. This is because in many families in rural areas, children wake up early in the morning to collect water before they go to school so that their parents have water to use throughout the day.

The reason 11-year-old Clarisse can afford to attend class on time today, is that clean water that is 300 metres from her house. Initially, she used to take a two hour round trip to the water source.

Rwanda

We have been working in Rwanda since 1994. For the first six years, the key focus of our interventions was relief and rehabilitation for the close to 3 million people that were displaced because of the genocide. In the year 2000, we began long-term, child-focused area development programmes in different parts of the country, targeting vulnerable children and their families with interventions in the areas of education and child sponsorship; health and nutrition; water, sanitation and hygiene; and the economic empowerment of households.


Our more than 300 staff in Rwanda currently work in 23 out of 30 Districts, supporting more than 1.5 million people –especially children–through 26 area development programmes.
