Rwandese delegation’s exchange visit in Bologna within bilateral cooperation IMELS-Rwanda

The Africa Centre for Climate and Sustainable Development and Hera Group host Rwandese delegation in Bologna on April 2nd and 3rd, within the bilateral cooperation between the Italian Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Environment of Rwanda.

The project “Sustainable Urban Wetlands Development within Kigali City”, financed by the Italian Ministry of Environment, Land and Sea (IMELS) under the cooperation activity of IMELS with Rwanda kicks off with a study visit in Bologna to build technical and institutional capacity on sustainable waste management, organized by the Africa Centre for Climate and Sustainable Development (ACSD) at Hera Group premises.

The Sustainable Urban Wetlands Development project aims to build a resilient city through the rehabilitation of degraded urban wetlands in Kigali, highly valued for their enormously important environmental and economic functions such as storing and releasing water, flood control, improving water quality. Drawing from good practices of environmental management, Kigali will be able to deliver not only basic services but it will turn into a safe, resilient and environmentally friendly city.

Ten Government Officials and technicians from relevant rwandese institutions will have exchanges on urban waste management and environmental impact assessment. Special visits to collection plants, recovery and waste sorting platforms, waste treatment plants and energy-producing incinerators will offer to the delegates a precious and closer look to Hera’s experience, enabling them to identify new opportunities and interventions for their home country.
