- Background
SNV
the Netherlands Development Organization is an international not-for-profit
development organisation working in over 30 developing countries for more than
40 years. In Rwanda SNV has been working for more than 30 years to improve
people’s livelihoods by strengthening the capacities of public and private
sector organisations. SNV works in full alignment with Rwanda’s development
agenda. It does so by helping to realize the national development goals in
three sectors: Agriculture; Renewable energy; and Water, Sanitation and
Hygiene. SNV supports development in these sectors by working with government,
civil society, and private sector organizations. It does so by providing three
types of interrelated services: capacity development, knowledge development,
and supporting evidence based policy dialogue by national stakeholders.
