Country Overview

The pact has been operating in Rwanda since 2010. Throughout the past decade, Pact Rwanda’s projects have been concentrated in the mining sector to increase traceability and transparency within supply chains. In 2019, Pact Rwanda has been awarded another project, which will expand our presence in the country. As our portfolio grows and diversifies, Pact Rwanda is now seeking a Finance and Grants Director, who will be responsible for overall financial management of the country portfolio of projects and administration of grants to local partners.

ACHIEVE is a five-year, USAID-funded global cooperative agreement with the dual objectives of attaining and sustaining HIV epidemic control among at-risk and hard to reach pregnant and breastfeeding (PBF) women, infants, children, and youth, as well as to mitigate the impact of HIV/ AIDS and prevent HIV transmission among these populations; and supporting the transition of prime funding and implementation to capable local partners in order to meet the PEPFAR goal of 70% of funding to local partners.

Since 2010, Pact has partnered with the Rwandan government, private sector, and civil society to develop a responsible, modern, and prosperous artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) sector in the country. Pact works in partnership to help ensure that minerals conform to the standards expected by the international markets, promoting development rather than conflict. Pact works in the Great Lakes region for the implementation of the traceability and due diligence project for minerals (Cassiterites, Wolframites and Coltan), commonly known as the ITSCI system. The program uses a range of activities, including a mineral package labeling system, creation of a comprehensive due diligence system, and a verifiable chain of control, which identifies all actors in the mineral supply chain from mine to export point.
