Hartwick College of New York Partners with a Rwandan Nonprofit on Education and Public Health Messaging in Rural Rwanda

March 11, 2019

Right partners are essential to improve and hold gains in education and public health messaging. We are thrilled to partner with Hartwick College and build an academic exchange program.

Located in New York, Hartwick college was founded in 1797. It confers bachelor’s degrees in various academic fields of study. As a private college, Hartwick students gain exceptional exposure to applied sciences. Thanks to Ireme Education for Social Change (IESI), our implementation partner in Musanze district for coordinating this partnership.

Faculty and students from Hartwick will start a formal exchange program in January 2022. Our collaboration will focus on education and integration of public health messaging into basic education program. This aligns with the Rwandan Ministry of Education and Ministry of Health’s priorities to improve academic performance and community well being.
