Assistant Project Manager at NjordFrey | Kigali :Deadline: 29-11-2024

0

Project Background

An international university, in partnership with NjordFrey, is undertaking a research project, aimed at exploring the social and environmental impacts of cookstove initiatives within Rwandan communities. This study aims to understand the role of community forests and household energy practices in Rwanda, particularly how households source energy/fuel, manage community resources, and respond to external cookstove interventions.


Rwanda’s reliance on wood and biomass as primary energy sources has heightened concerns about deforestation and environmental degradation. In response, organisations have introduced improved cookstoves designed to reduce fuelwood usage, promising benefits for both household energy efficiency and forest conservation. However, the effectiveness of these programmes is not fully documented, and adoption rates remain variable.

As a result, the team are interested in the qualitative dynamics of how Rwandan households make decisions about energy sourcing and forest resource use. Key areas of focus include the rules governing community forest access, the availability and types of energy sources for cooking, and strategies households adopt during times of fuel scarcity. The team also aims to evaluate the influence of improved cookstoves on fuel sourcing, especially in rural and peri-urban areas outside Kigali, and explore potential regional variations in practices and perceptions.

This study will involve time in the field to visit villages in different districts around Rwanda to gather diverse insights on community forest usage, decision-making around energy, and the perceived value of cookstove initiatives independent of input from cookstove providers. Researchers aim to ensure the survey is culturally appropriate and sensitive to participants’ comfort, recognising that questions related to energy and forest resources may carry social sensitivities.

Data gathered from this research will complement existing quantitative studies, contributing to the final research output and offering a comprehensive view of the role of community forests in Rwandan energy practices. By addressing gaps in current literature, the project aims to inform policy and programme development related to cookstove use, community forest management, and sustainable energy practices in Rwanda.

Following this defined research project, there will be the opportunity for successful candidates to be considered and recommended for other projects within the company.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF THE HI RWANDA PROGRAMME

Federation Handicap International, operating under the name of “Humanity & Inclusion” (HI) is an independent and impartial international solidarity organization, which intervenes in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflicts and disasters. Working alongside people with disabilities and vulnerable populations, it acts and commits itself to meet their basic needs, to improve their living conditions and to promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights

HI started operating in Rwanda after the aftermath of the genocide perpetrated against Tutsi in July 1994. From 1994 to 1996, HI worked alongside many other NGOs to provide emergency assistance to a population plunged in extreme distress, misery and poverty. From 1996 to 2000, the country experienced a period of relative social, political and administrative stability, during which HI engaged in long-term activities and aimed at improving the living conditions of vulnerable people, particularly those with mental health problems, HIV / AIDS, by providing them with appropriate support. Since 2001, HI has been contributing to the development of the country, expanding its activities and developing projects to prevent violence through a community-based approach, promoting education for all, community-based rehabilitation, training of occupational therapists, fighting against gender-based violence, protecting children from abuse and violence – especially children with disabilities, promoting inclusive nutrition, ECD and nurturing care. In addition to these areas, HI also wishes to join other partners in the field of bringing back out of school children to schools with special focus on those with disabilities.


BRIEF PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The EAC funded Zero-OOSC is the program for the Education Above All Foundation – Qatar as the donor.  The project aims at addressing the gaps and needs relating to OOSC and drop-out rates at the primary grade level. Zero-OOSC consortium will deliver a comprehensive, coordinated intervention contributing to the vision that no child misses out on primary education in Rwanda. This project will improve access to and retention of 177,119 out-of-school children (66,380 girls, 110,739 boys, including 17,712 children with disabilities) and 15,240 other individuals across all 30 districts in Rwanda by the end of the five-year implementation period.

The project will achieve the above-mentioned objectives by improving OOSC data and tracking systems, and removing the barriers that keep them away from schools. These barriers can be of financial, physical, structural and social nature, faced by children themselves and/or their caregivers, and be mutually reinforcing.  The action will encompass three outcomes:

  • OUTCOME 1. Strengthened strategies and practices for the enrollment and retention of out of school children at school level.
