Today, we welcomed the Director General of Meteo Rwanda @AimableGahigi to our office, where he joined our CEO @TeddyMugabo_ to formalise the handover of three automatic weather stations installed through @GreenGicumbi Project. These stations collect local weather and soil data to help inform climate monitoring and agricultural planning. With @MeteoRwanda taking responsibility for their management and maintenance, this investment will continue to support the communities it was established to serve. #GreenRwanda🇷🇼🌿 #InvestInRwanda

Through @GreenFundRw’s Green Gicumbi project, beekeeping cooperatives have grown into honey businesses, and families who once lived in high-risk zones now have safe homes in a green model village. Today, our Resident Rep @FatmataLSesay joined CEO @TeddyMugabo_ of @GreenFundRw and @Gicumbi_Rwanda Vice Mayor for Economic Development, Uwera Parfaite, to see these results firsthand. When land restoration, safer housing, clean energy and livelihoods are planned together, climate action becomes sustainable development. #GreenGicumbi shows what integrated approaches can deliver.
