ABOUT RWAMREC

Rwanda Men’s Resource Centre (RWAMREC) is a non-governmental organization dedicated to transforming harmful masculinities and promoting gender equality in Rwanda and beyond. RWAMREC envisions a peaceful society where women and men share responsibilities in family life and governance through equality and mutual respect. Our mission is to promote gender equality through awareness creation, advocacy, capacity development, movement building, and service delivery.
In partnership with KNH, RWAMREC is implementing the Self-Help Group Approach (SHGA) in Karongi District. This rights-based approach views poverty as a denial of rights and emphasizes economic, social, and political empowerment through the creation of People’s Institutions. These institutions foster trust and cooperation, enabling communities to achieve their own development goals. RWAMREC supports this work through community-based training.
To facilitate this initiative, RWAMREC is hiring a District   Coordinator to oversee management, implementation, coordination, and reporting.
