Enabel supports Maternal and Child Health Week 2025
Denise NSANGA | 20/01/2025
Enabel proudly participated in Rwanda’s Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Week, held from January 13–17, 2025. This important initiative, led by the Ministry of Health and its partners, plays a significant role in addressing maternal and child health challenges that remain in the country. While Rwanda has made great strides in improving maternal and child health, issues such as neonatal mortality, high stunting rates, and limited access to family planning services remain.During the campaign, Enabel focused on two critical health interventions: screening for malnutrition (with 63,676 children under 2 years old screened) and providing family planning services (serving 1,840 women with modern contraceptive methods), in the districts of Gisagara, Karongi, Nyamasheke, and Rusizi. These services aim to reduce malnutrition and ensure that women and men have access to the information and resources needed for healthier families.Enabel’s involvement is part of the Belgium-Rwanda cooperation programme 2024-2029 in the health sector, aiming to strengthening access to quality healthcare, with a particular emphasis on sexual and reproductive health and combating gender-based violence. The bi-annual MCH Week offers an essential platform for decentralised health services, reaching out to communities with vital interventions like vitamin A supplementation (administering 212,320 doses to children under five) deworming, nutrition screening, family planning services and immunisation catch-ups for children who have missed doses.By addressing gaps in maternal and child health services, MCH Week plays a vital role in promoting behaviour change, raising health awareness, and improving health outcomes for women and children across the country.

Enhancing Public Finance Management skills in Rwanda: a strategic training initiative for senior officials
Denise NSANGA | 20/01/2025
Enabel, in collaboration with the Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (MINECOFIN), on January 15th, 2025 organised a strategic training session on PFM aimed at strengthening the Public Financial Management (PFM) capacity of senior officials. This strategic training focused on major ongoing PFM reforms and systems which are currently implemented by the Government of Rwanda such as Performance-based Budgeting and International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS).The training brought together 31 participants, including project managers and thematic experts from Enabel, representatives of the Embassy of Belgium in Rwanda, and several development partners who have recently joined the PFM Technical Working Group. The session offered in-depth insights into various aspects of Rwanda’s PFM landscape as well as essential updates on the key elements of the newly adopted PFM SSP 2024-2029 which is central to accelerating Rwanda’s socioeconomic transformation through effective fiscal policy and accountable public.The session was not just informative but also participatory, featuring presentations by experts from MINECOFIN and hands-on discussions on enhancing PFM sector coordination, accountability, and ensuring smooth implementation of grants in key sectors like Health, Agriculture, and Urbanisation. The success of this training reflects the necessity of continuous collaborative efforts of both national and development partners to foster a deeper understanding of Rwanda's PFM systems and reforms to ensure that all PFM players contribute effectively to the goals set under the Second National Strategy for Transformation (NST 2).

Shakira is growing a poultry business for a better future in Uganda
Jovia KAVULU | 14/01/2025
Shakira Lunyolo started with just 10 hens, inspired by her friends who raised chickens and earned money from it. She learned the basics of poultry farming from them and received help to build a chicken house. In addition to her initial efforts, Enabel supported her with 30 more hens, feeders, drinkers, protective gear, a wheelbarrow, as well as chicken feeds and medicine. With this support, Shakira gained new skills, including how to mix and administer medicine to her hens. She now monitors the hens closely and takes good care of them. Her primary focus is egg production, and she plans to sell her first batch of eggs in early 2025. Shakira already has a market in mind. She will sell trays of eggs to local vendors, including those selling street food like "rolex" and chips, as well as at a nearby market. To attract customers, she plans to sell each tray at UGX 8,000, slightly below the market price of UGX 10,000. She also expects additional income from selling her older hens for UGX 25,000 each. Currently living with her mother and raising two children, Shakira is optimistic about the future. She believes her poultry business will grow and eventually allow her to pay school fees for her children and support her family. “I see my business expanding in two years,” she says confidently, full of hope for the opportunities ahead.

Les journées du poisson au Mali : Un tremplin pour le développement durable
Nènè TRAORE | 14/01/2025
La 3ème édition des Journées du Poisson au Mali, tenue du 9 au 11 janvier 2025, a une nouvelle fois souligné l’importance stratégique du secteur de la pêche dans l’économie malienne. Placé sous le haut patronage du Premier ministre, cet événement a rassemblé tous les acteurs de la filière, allant des représentants du gouvernement (50% des ministres), des collectivités territoriales aux organisations de producteurs en passant par les partenaires techniques et financiers et la société civile. Le poisson : un enjeu de sécurité alimentaire et de développement économique Troisième producteur de poisson d’eau douce en Afrique, le Mali dispose d’un potentiel halieutique immense. Cependant, le secteur fait face à de multiples défis, notamment la dégradation des écosystèmes aquatiques, la surpêche et le manque d’infrastructures et d’équipements adaptés. Les Journées du Poisson offrent une plateforme unique pour dresser un bilan objectif de la situation et orienter les efforts vers un développement durable de la filière. Représentant le troisième produit d’exportation du pays (après l’or et le coton), le poisson est essentiel à l’économie nationale. Il génère des milliers d’emplois directs et indirects tout en contribuant significativement à la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle. C’est dans ce sens que Cheick Oumar Diaouré Maïga, Président de l’Interprofession de la Filière Poisson, a exprimé des attentes clés pour l’avenir, notamment l’institutionnalisation des Journées du Poisson, l’identification des défis majeurs et la mise en place d’infrastructures et d’équipements adaptés. Il a insisté sur l’importance d’une coopération renforcée pour optimiser la gestion des pêcheries. Pour relever les défis, le gouvernement, en collaboration avec ses partenaires, promeut des solutions durables comme l’initiation de la cogestion, la promotion de la pisciculture intensive et artisanale, l’amélioration des stratégies de conservation et de transformation du poisson.L’engagement du PAFHa Le Projet d’Appui à la Filière Halieutique (PAFHa), financé par l’Union Européenne et mis en œuvre par Enabel, joue un rôle majeur dans l’organisation de cet événement. Le projet soutient activement la structuration et le développement de la filière halieutique à travers des initiatives ciblées, telles que la gestion durable des pêcheries, l’amélioration des infrastructures/équipements et l’accès aux intrants essentiels. Moments forts et avancées récentes Parmi les moments marquants de cette édition figure :- la visite des stands où sont exposés les acquis des projets/programmes (résultats atteints, poisson frais et transformé, démarches d’intervention, innovations en matière d’intrants). C’est dans l’un des stands (animé par l’AEDR et l’ODPA-DIN) que se trouvaient certains résultats du projet PAFHa (documents de capitalisation, poisson ouradi, informations…) ;- La remise d’un chèque géant symbolique de 7 milliards de FCFA par la banque Mondiale à travers le Projet de Restauration des Terres Dégradées (PRTD) à l’interprofession de la filière poisson. Ce financement vise à soutenir les alliances productives, notamment l’achat d’intrants et d’aliments pour poissons ;- L’animation des conférences débats sur des thématiques comme la valeur nutritive du poisson dans l’alimentation humaine, la farine de la larve de mouche noire soldat comme protéine dans l’alimentation des poissons, le poisson comme facteur de promotion du genre et de la cohésion sociale, la vulnérabilité des ressources halieutiques aux effets des changements climatiques…Un secteur à valoriserLes Journées du Poisson, qui s’est achevé le 11 janvier 2025, ont mis en lumière la richesse et le potentiel de la filière halieutique tout en ouvrant des perspectives d’investissement prometteuses. Pour le PAFHa, cet évènement est une occasion privilégiée de partage d’expériences, de développement de synergie en vue de promouvoir les bonnes pratiques et de contribuer à la résilience économique et écologique du Mali.Au-delà de sa valeur nutritive, le poisson incarne un symbole de prospérité et de stabilité pour le pays. En soutenant des initiatives telles que les Journées du Poisson, le PAFHa confirme son engagement à accompagner le Mali dans la construction d’une filière halieutique durable et performante. C’est dans cette optique, qu’Enabel (dans sa logique d’appui à la vision de développement durable du gouvernement du Mali) travaille avec d'autres partenaires pour concevoir un nouveau projet d’accompagnement de la filière halieutique.

Supporting each other in healthy living and business growth in Uganda
Jovia KAVULU | 13/01/2025
The Kamuli Network of People Living with HIV, formed in 2020, is a group of 25 members—17 women and 8 men—dedicated to supporting each other. In 2022, they evolved into a savings group and launched a poultry project. Each member contributed a membership fee of UGX 10,000 to kick-start the venture. Starting with just 30 birds, the group reared and sold them, restocked with 50, and later grew to 300 birds. They initially relied on limited knowledge shared by a member but soon realized the need for professional guidance. After selling off the 300 birds, MUCOBADI (Multi Community-based Development Initiative) and Enabel stepped in to support them. The group received invaluable training in Village Savings and Loan Association (VSLA) skills, poultry management, and business skills. They also received practical tools and resources such as brooding pots, feeders, PPEs, two wheelbarrows, and a solar panel. Most importantly, they were given 817 chicks, of which they successfully reared and sold 801, earning UGX 9,688,000 in revenue. The poultry house they use was graciously offered by the mother of one member. Although the startup support gave the group a significant boost, they faced challenges, particularly with inadequate feed, which forced them to borrow money from their savings group. They took out loans totaling UGX 4 million to ensure the birds were well-fed. The group’s commitment is evident in their collective decision-making and willingness to contribute personal funds to sustain the project. With plans to restock another 800 birds, they aim to avoid further loans and achieve financial independence. A male member proudly stated, “Now we can see where we are going. The startup kit we were given has boosted our business a lot.”

A young Ugandan fish farmer with big plans
Jovia KAVULU | 13/01/2025
At just 16 years old, Baraka Kintu manages a fish pond while also attending school. The pond was a gift from his father, who worked with the family to dig it. This was after their land suffered from water damage due to a nearby dam. Baraka’s mother takes care of the pond while he’s at school. The family has been attempting fish farming for 20 years but initially struggled. They collected small fish from nearby swamps, but despite feeding them, the fish didn’t grow well. Things changed when Enabel stepped in. They provided the family with 30 catfish and fish feeds. There was also a training session that Baraka’s mother attended on his behalf. The training covered proper feeding, pond management, and fish care. An extension worker now visits regularly to offer technical advice, and a vet helps treat sick fish by spraying medicine into the pond. Since the intervention, the results have been remarkable. Within just three days of receiving the new fish, eggs were spotted in the pond. The fish are thriving, thanks to better feed and improved care. Baraka’s family now plans to let the fish grow until they reach about a kilo each, ensuring a higher profit when sold. To protect the fish, the family is reinforcing the pond boundaries to prevent flooding and theft. Their neighbor, who also has a fish pond, installed security cameras, adding an extra layer of protection. The family now sells fish on the 23rd of each month but is currently holding off sales to let the fish grow bigger.The training also introduced the idea of frying unsold fish to preserve them for longer periods. With plans to fill their other dry ponds using the multiplying fish, Baraka is hopeful about expanding the fish farming business.

Building a future with pig farming in Uganda
Jovia KAVULU | 13/01/2025
Joanita Nansamba started rearing pigs 8 years ago with a clear goal in mind: to save enough money to buy her own plot of land and move out of the one-roomed house she was renting. Her hard work paid off when she sold some pigs, bought land, and built a house where she now lives with her husband and children. In October 2024, Joanita received three pigs after attending a two-week training in Jinja. Through the training, she was guided on how to properly feed and care for pigs. “After the training, we were asked to return home and prepare to receive the pigs they would donate to us,” she recalls. Along with the pigs, she received 45 kilograms of pig feed, two spades, and personal protective equipment (PPE).Since receiving the pigs, Joanita’s farming has been progressing smoothly. “Even when the pigs get sick, I just call MUCOBADI, and they send a vet to check on them,” she says. She emphasizes that they were advised not to use just any vet to treat the pigs, ensuring proper care for her livestock. Joanita once earned one million shillings from selling a single pig that she and her husband raised. She believes that nurturing pigs until they grow to a significant size ensures better income. The foreign breed pigs she received from Enabel are of high quality, and she is confident they will bring good returns. Pig farming has given Joanita the financial stability to pay her children’s school fees without worry. She aspires to inspire the youth in her community by growing her farm and showing them that hard work and commitment can lead to success.

Patricia foresees expansion of her poultry business in Uganda
Jovia KAVULU | 13/01/2025
Patricia Baluka, a 30-year-old mother of two, used to focus on growing maize and beans. She later decided to try poultry farming, using savings she had accumulated from a women’s savings group. Patricia saved money from selling her produce and eventually borrowed from the group to buy two local chickens. By the time MUCOBADI (Multi Community-based Development Initiative) visited her, Patricia had grown her flock to five chickens. She was then invited to a two-week training organised by Enabel in Jinja. After completing the training, Patricia received 50 chicks, which were three weeks old, along with essential items such as a wheelbarrow, a spade, drinkers, and feeders. “They asked me to prepare a place for the chickens, and by the time they brought them, I was ready,” Patricia explains. She appreciates the regular visits and veterinary services provided to ensure her poultry business is on the right track. Patricia rears the chickens for both eggs and meat. Her goal is to allow her hens to lay eggs and hatch chicks before she begins selling, ensuring she retains high-quality chickens for her business. So far, Patricia has faced minimal challenges, aside from occasional coughs among her hens. With the help of veterinary services, she has been able to treat them promptly. Patricia is optimistic about growing her poultry farm and is determined to build a sustainable business that supports her family.

Bashir quit his job to concentrate on poultry farming in Uganda
Jovia KAVULU | 13/01/2025
Bashir used to sell electronics for someone else before deciding to venture into poultry farming. The idea came from watching his mother, who also kept chickens. To ensure the business was viable, Bashir conducted his own research and decided to use the money he had saved from a savings group to start. Starting wasn’t too difficult for Bashir since he already had a suitable space—an unfinished rental building he uses for free—and feeders and drinkers that his mother had previously used. With UGX 600,000, he bought 30 chickens, feeds, and medicine. Enabel later supported him with 60 high-quality chickens, more feeders, drinkers, and additional supplies like feeds and medicine. He now rears chickens for both eggs and meat. However, Bashir faced a major setback when 27 of his chickens died due to what he believes was food poisoning. Despite this, he is determined to keep going, with the remaining 33 chickens, including 7 cocks. Bashir plans to sell his entire stock, at a rate of UGX 25,000 per hen and UGX 45,000 to 50,000 per cock. After selling, he plans to restock and expand his business. Bashir is now confident in running his business. He has learned the importance of keeping proper records and tracking his income and expenses. “I feel my business is on the right track despite the setback,” Bashir says. He is now better prepared to handle challenges and is optimistic about growing his poultry farm.

Building a successful beekeeping business in Uganda
Jovia KAVULU | 13/01/2025
After finishing O-levels in 2016, Jamali Lwayi could not continue with school because his parents could not afford fees for him and his siblings. Determined to make a living, he chose to engage beekeeping as an income generating activity. This is because it is relatively cheap to start compared to other projects. Secondly, he had access to land at his father's home. He also had some basic skills in making traditional hives from local materials, which gave him a starting point. Jamali faced many challenges in the beginning. He didn’t know how to attract bees to his hives, so he visited experienced beekeepers in nearby villages to learn from them. With time, he got better at preparing hives and attracting bees using beeswax and propolis. He also learned how to transfer the bees safely to his apiary. In 2024, MUCOBADI (Multi Community-based Development Initiative) noticed Jamali’s work during a training session he attended. They connected him to Enabel, which trained him in business and entrepreneurship skills. These trainings helped him improve how he keeps records and tracks his income. Enabel also gave him a booster kit with items like harvesting baskets, honey filters, protective gear, honey buckets, and four modern hives. Three of these hives are now full. “Enabel has given me knowledge and better tools. I no longer fear bee stings, and my honey is now clear, which makes it easier to sell,” Jamali says. His biggest market comes from patients in a nearby hospital. In addition, he sells his honey to local supermarkets, traditional herbalists, and people in his village. Before getting support from Enabel and MUCOBADI, Jamali struggled with producing good-quality honey. His honey often had particles, which made it less competitive. Now, with better tools and training, his honey is clear and more attractive to buyers. A liter of honey sells for UGX 20,000–25,000, and half a liter goes for UGX 13,000–15,000, depending on the buyer. Jamali is now confident and focused on growing his business. He plans to expand his apiary and reach more customers in the future. With the skills and tools he has gained, his beekeeping business is improving every day.

From healing to thriving through poultry farming in Uganda
Jovia KAVULU | 13/01/2025
Twegaite Youth Saving Group began as a safe space for women to address mental health challenges, focusing on psycho-social therapy for members who had experienced depression, domestic violence, and other hardships. Over time, the group evolved into a Village Savings and Loan Association (VSLA), helping members save, borrow, and invest in small businesses like selling fruits, vegetables, and second-hand clothes. Today, the group has transitioned into a dynamic income-generating initiative, primarily focused on poultry farming.On October 10, 2024, the group received 350 one-day-old chicks from Enabel in collaboration with MUCOBADI (Multi Community-based Development Initiative). These were accompanied by two weeks' worth of feed, feeding equipment, and tools such as wheelbarrows, feeders, and drinkers. Vaccination, a critical aspect of poultry management, was left to the group to foster ownership and sustainability. “We don’t provide 100% support,” explains Isaac Keuber, an entrepreneurship and resilient officer from Enabel. “We intervene where the group is constrained, but we want them to take charge of their business for continuity.”The group embraced this responsibility, working under a structured schedule where six members (three during the day and three at night) manage the poultry daily. Despite losing seven birds, the group sold 353 hens—244 of high quality at UGX 12,000 each and 109 at UGX 10,000 each—earning a total of UGX 4,018,000 by November 24, 2024. The group also overcame logistical challenges like relocating from a rented space to a chicken house they constructed on a member’s land to save costs.Sara Kawudha, a group representative, shares their future plans: “We sat down, made a budget, and realized we need UGX 5,512,000 to restock with 500 chicks. We already have housing for them.” The group’s journey has been supported by tailored training in business and entrepreneurship, along with mentorship from business coaches trained by Enabel. These coaches, part of a Private Sector Model for Sustainability, ensure continuity by equipping groups with record-keeping and business monitoring skills. Twegaite is also supported by a network of extension workers and field assistants to minimize losses and maximize profits.With 27 women and 3 men, the future for Twegaite Youth Saving Group seems bright.

Kamukamu group: saving together and growing tomatoes for sale in Uganda
Jovia KAVULU | 13/01/2025
Kamukamu, is a vibrant community of youthful farmers, transforming their lives through teamwork and tomato farming. Initially started as a Village Savings and Loan Association (VSLA), the group decided to expand their activities to increase their income. They chose to grow tomatoes because they grow quickly, offer fast returns, and have a ready market.“We used to farm individually, but now we work as a team,” says Andrew Sande, a group member. “At first, some of us didn’t even want to hold a hoe, but now we are empowered and motivated to work together.”With support from Enabel and MUCOBADI (Multi-community based development Initiative), the group rented three acres of land and began their tomato farming journey in July 2024. They received training on modern farming methods, which included using organic manure and handling farming as a business. Following the training, Enabel provided them with a start-up kit containing tomato seeds, spraying pumps, watering cans, a water pump, a solar panel, and other essential tools. “The seeds we received are of high quality and weather-resistant, unlike what we’ve seen in the community,” Andrew adds.Every member contributes to the group’s success, whether through labor or financial support. Some members focus solely on saving, while others participate in both savings and farming. The group assigns specific garden tasks to individuals and tracks contributions, ensuring fairness in sharing profits. Enabel also assigned an agricultural extension worker to assist the group. “Initially, we did horticulture haphazardly, but now we have expert guidance,” says Andrew. The extension worker visits twice a week, offering technical advice and helping them tackle challenges.Tomatoes take 75 days to mature. The group estimates earning at least 60 million UGX from their harvest. They have invested 12 million UGX in the project, including 900,000 UGX for land rent.“We are confident because this tomato variety is high-yielding and expensive. It’s in high demand,” Andrew explains.Isaac Keuber, an entrepreneurship and resilient officer from Enabel highlights the importance of using organic manure.“It’s safer for the environment and more affordable,” he says. The group’s location near a swamp means they can easily practice irrigation, and thanks to the water pump and solar panel they received, it is now easier. “I am really happy with this group,” Isaac adds. “They are organized, cooperative, and committed. I am confident they will succeed.”

Enabel’s UEDi Phase 2: Building sustainable, smart satellite cities for Rwanda
Denise NSANGA | 08/01/2025
Enabel’s urbanisation project, Urban Economic Development initiative (UEDi) Phase 2, is strategically aligned with several key objectives of Rwanda’s National Strategy for Transformation (NST2). The primary focus of this new phase, running from 2024 to 2029, is to develop sustainable and attractive satellite cities that will serve as hubs for economic growth and social development while respecting the environment. By partnering with government authorities, this project will contribute to address multiple national priorities in a holistic and cross-cutting manner: The project seeks to create off-farm jobs and support the development of the construction value chain, directly contributing to the NST2 ambitions in terms of employment generation. By fostering a robust construction sector, we not only create job opportunities but also stimulate broader economic activities. The initiative emphasizes the use of Made in Rwanda construction materials, with particular attention to enhancing the clay, stone, and bamboo value chains. This focus is guided by principles of green circular economy, promoting sustainability and minimizing environmental impacts.Urban agriculture and urban agroforestry will be promoted in satellite cities. This initiative aims not only to address malnutrition and contribute to the development of “sponge cities,” which are designed for sustainable water management and enhanced urban resilience, but also to promote eco-tourism attractions in these satellite cities.Finally, UEDi Phase 2 will also contribute to transformational governance. The project supports the development of smart city tools such as the Urban Dynamic Map. This will boost citizen engagement and enable informed decision-making in city planning.By embracing cities as dynamic, living ecosystems that continuously evolve, the project aligns with both the aspirations of the Rwandan people and the long-term goals of national urban development.
