Building Resilient Communities, Sustaining Future Generations

Promoting Rights and Capacities of Vulnerable Groups for a Brighter Tomorrow

About Hand in Hand for Development

HIHD was founded in 2012 by good-hearted people motivated by the disarray and precarious situations through which people lived especially those orphans, widows, people living with albinism, girls heads of households as a result from the hard times and civil wars that Rwanda passed through before and after colonization period. These led to excessive unemployment youth and severe conditions for marginalized groups; therefore, there was strong need to reintegrate them socially and economically in developing vocational skills; providing training and awareness campaigns on peace building, human rights and ensuring education and innovation in job creation.
