WHAT IS THE RWANDA GREEN FUND?

The Rwanda Green Fund (FONERWA) is a groundbreaking environment and climate change fund. Its purpose is to be the engine of green growth in Rwanda, while serving as a touchstone for Africa and the rest of the world. Its strategy is to provide unheralded technical and financial support to the best public and private projects that align with Rwanda’s commitment to a green economy.

OUR VISION FOR THE FUTURE

To respond to Rwanda’s current and future financing needs for environment, climate change, and green growth to accelerate goals of national sustainable economic development.

HOW THE FUND WORKS

The fund carries out public Calls For Proposals and applicants have a one month window of opportunity to submit their project concepts, known as Project Profile Documents (PPDs), developed according to pre-established criteria. All proposals received are  taken through a rigorous screening process.

The project or programme proposal screening is carried out in a fair, transparent, competitive multi-step process. It is overseen by the Fund Management Team (FMT)/Secretariat with ultimate funding decisions made by the Fund Managing Committee (FMC) based on evaluations and recommendations provided by the FMT & Fund Technical Committee FTC.
