The Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany has the possibility to offer financial assistance to Rwandese associations for carrying out micro projects.
Applicant’s project is supposed to improve the living conditions of several beneficiaries. Please note that there are no priority fields as far as a sponsorship for a project is concerned, i.e. this Embassy has supported in recent years agricultural and educational projects as well as small scale industries and different kinds of breeding projects.
The fund for micro projects of the German Embassy was established as part of the technical cooperation between Germany and Rwanda. This fund is designed to assist projects at grass root level. Applicant’s project has to be set up in order to directly fulfil the needs of the poorest and most vulnerable parts of the population. Measures such as training, small infrastructures (i.e. water harvesting system), income earning activities and projects to improve the nutritional situation, the health or educational status of the beneficiaries or serve as environmental protection measures are eligible for funding.
Funding Information
The amount available per project is in the range of 5.000 to 15.000 EUR (approximately 5 Mio. RWF to 15 Mio. RWF). The time of execution of the project must not exceed six months.
Criteria
- Generally, local non-governmental organisations, self-help groups as well as local administrations and church based organisations can apply for support.
- Government agencies, business men or other individuals seeking support in order to establish or improve their services or private businesses do not qualify for this program and therefore applications cannot be considered.
- One application within 3 years is admissible.
