Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

In 2005, Qi Deen, the Chinese Ambassador to Rwanda, signed an agreement with Charles Murigande, Rwanda's Minister of Foreign Affairs and cooperation, for grant support for the Umutara Field Management Extension Project. The project included the construction of a 18km countryside road and other strengthening works to the reservoir dam and the irrigation system, providing furniture and communication facilities to the administration centre. The project was completed in October 2007. The amount and start date are unknown. The original Umutara Field Management Project was completed and handed over to the Rwandan Government in 2003 (See Record ID#24320).
