About founding members
The founding members of the RDIS organization are five dioceses of the Anglican Church of Rwanda: Butare, Cyangugu, Kigeme, Nyaruguru, and Shyogwe. Geographically located in the Southern and Western province of Rwanda. Through their shared vision, commitment, and partnership, these dioceses laid the foundation for the organization's mission and continue to play a vital role in guiding its growth and impact in communities across Rwanda.
The RDIS Organisation participated in the World Environment Day 2018 by facilitating some actions and a workshop in Butare diocese on Tuesday 5th June 2018, from 9:00 am to 5 pm o’clock. The participants were composed of about 24 youths and other leaders, who are involved in our ongoing waste management project. They came from all four dioceses of the Anglican Church in Rwanda, namely Kigeme, Shyogwe, Cyangugu and Butare. Members of staff from the Butare diocese’s office also attended the opening event.
The workshop/action day was officially opened by Hon Bishop Nathan Gasatura, who is also the Chairman of RDIS organization. In his address, he stressed on the importance of environmental protection and why this issue is taken up very seriously by the Anglican Church in Rwanda. He urged the youth to play their role in this noble task.
