Rwanda-CAE (Ad­van­cing sus­tain­able eco­nomic de­vel­op­ment in Rwanda through cir­cu­lar agro-eco­nomy)

The circular economy poses great possibilities for Rwanda’s agro-economic sector with positive effects on environment and economy. This project will implement an interdisciplinary practice-oriented master program for circular agro-economics and applied entrepreneurship in a blended learning format at University of Rwanda: M.Sc. Circular Agro-Economics. This will drive the creation of innovative startups for the realization of circular agro-economy principles. Individual modules of this Masters will be offered to professionals in the form of short certificate courses.
In addition, the project will conduct applied research on the creation of sustainable business models for agro-economy cycles.
An expert network of relevant institutions for circular economy innovations in Rwanda and Germany will be established, including the project business partners SINA GERARD Ese URWIBUTSO, Sharkbite Innovation GmbH and En-Crops GmbH.
