2011 - NTUNGA HEALTH CENTRE

NTUNGA, MWULIRE, RWANDA

 Ntunga in the Mwulire Sector is located in the district of Rwamagana (Eastern Province) and supports a population of 18,939 people. In this sector there is not any kind of medical/health centre or hospital. Anyone living in the centre of Mwulire sector (county) currently has to walk about 22 miles for medical aid, only available in a different sector. Obviously, many people who have serious health problems, or women with birth complications, die through lack of medical care.   Mwulire Sector is located in the district of Rwamagana (Eastern Province) and supports a population of 18,939 people. In this sector there is not any kind of medical/health centre or hospital. Anyone living in the centre of Mwulire sector (county) currently has to walk about 22 miles for medical aid, only available in a different sector. Obviously, many people who have serious health problems, or women with birth complications, die through lack of medical care.  Ntunga is a village in the Eastern Province of Rwanda. It is the “county capital” where the local authority is based and has a population of 4434. In general the area is impoverished and the population has little or no employment.

GIKONDO

The area is Gikondo, a poor suburb of Kigali and an area I have been aware of since my first visit in 2001.   The idea is to enable widows individuals to  run a small business. In addition we have trained 18 girls in tailoring.

TRAINING GIRLS IN TAILORING AND BOYS IN WELDING

              Working with the Rwandan Diabetic Association, 10 girls have been trained and qualified in  hairdressing.  This has given  these  young people the opportunity to enjoy a reasonable life.
