Strengthening women’s economic empowerment through diversified livelihoods in Rwamagana District

33 members of Twongere Umusaruro Cooperative in Rwamagana District are engaged in fruit processing and milling services, adding value to their products and increasing their income. Through these services, the cooperative not only strengthens the economic capacity of its members but also supports surrounding communities by providing accessible processing solutions that reduce women’s workload and save time—contributing to more efficient and productive households.

In parallel, 38 members of Amaliza y’Ubuliza Cooperative have been supported with manure and paillage (mulching) techniques to improve coffee production. This support is already contributing to increased quantity and improved quality of coffee, enhancing both productivity and market value.
