TENDER NOTICE

Knowledge sharing is a fundamental part of implementation of the agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals. SDG 17 calls for enhancing “knowledge sharing on mutually agreed terms”, transcending traditional “donor-recipient” relations towards shared learning. In recognition of the importance of knowledge sharing as a means of implementation for SDGs, many countries established special offices within their governments tasked with codifying and sharing successful solutions – at central or sector level. Such offices started emerging in countries at very different levels of development.

Moreover, the National Strategy for Transformation (NST1) for Transformational Governance Pillar, under Rwanda’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation priority area 3 to strengthen Diplomatic and International Cooperation to accelerate Rwanda and Africa’s development, an action to put in place mechanisms to raise awareness of Rwanda’s Home-Grown Initiatives and Good Practices collectively called innovative initiatives, locally and internationally to assist development was required.

As a result, Rwanda Cooperation Initiative was established in 2018 with a mission to become a global gateway for development knowledge exchange by serving as a hub for learning that promotes innovative development initiatives through national and international cooperation. Rwanda Cooperation Initiative shares Rwanda’s knowledge through different activities including Study Visits, Training, Research and Advisory services as well as Project Implementation drawing from Rwanda’s experience.
