About: Rwanda is a living and breathing example of UN reform. The aim is to be more coherent in our actions, to work more efficiently and have stronger effect for the development of Rwanda and well-being of its population. Rwanda is one of eight countries in the world that has been selected as a pilot country for the Delivering as One UN reform. The reform in Rwanda consists of 5 pillars; the One Programme, The One Budgetary Framework, The One Leader, the One Voice and the One Office. Read more about Delivering as One UN office.
Our Role: Our staff spent two and half weeks working on data collection forms alongside UNICEF programmers using the RapidSMS platform. The data was used as part of a mapping project which we also helped develop using Ruby on Rails.
