Rwanda, 2013/2015
The design for the education facilities in refugee camps Kigeme, Mugobwa and Nyabiheke is based on the pilot projects of pre-primary schools. It has been developed to set a standard for education facilities within the special environment and social realities of the refugee camps across Rwanda.
The project was funded by UNICEF, which played a crucial role as it defined an innovative teaching strategy, provided logistics, and helped coordinate the different stakeholders involved in the process. The donor acted as an effective project partner and worked together with headmasters, engineers, contractors and community members to guarantee the long-term durability of the schools.
