The COP Rwanda 2024 human security activities are held under the theme: "30 years of Liberation: Defence and Security Organs with the Community partnering for Rwanda’s Development."
In the next three months, RNP, RDF and partners will engage in improving the socio-economic well-being of the Rwandans, including construction of houses for the disadvantaged families, connecting houses that are far from the national grid with solar energy, and constructing Early Childhood Development (ECD) centres.
They will also construct bridges linking communities, extend clean water closer to the people, conduct medical outreach activities, donate livestock to families as well as boats to fishing and water transport cooperatives; give financial support to cooperatives Agents of Change composed of rehabilitated drug addicts, plant trees and construct terraces to fight soil erosion, as well as security and hygiene awareness.
Senior government, defence and security officials presided over the launch of the COP Rwanda 2024 in all provinces and City of Kigali where residents were commended for their trust and partnership in maintaining the security of the country as a pillar for development.
Since 2010, Rwanda National Police engaged in community development activities known as Police Month.
In 2022, RNP injected about Frw2.5 billion to support community development projects. Community development initiatives worth over Frw1 billion were also handed over to beneficiaries in 2021.
The RDF has also conducted the annual Army Week since 2009 to contribute to community development.
The Citizen Outreach Programme is in line with the RDF and RNP constitutional mandate to contribute to Rwanda’s socio-economic transformation.
