Women Leadership Program in Education

Higher Education for Development (HED), in cooperation with the United States Agency for International Development in Rwanda (USAID)/Rwanda, is issuing a Request for Applications (RFA) for women’s leadership in education in Rwanda.

HED expects to make one (1) award of up to $1,080,000 for the period from October 1, 2012 to June 30, 2015 for a higher education partnership between one or more higher education institution(s) in the United States and the Kigali Institute of Education (KIE) in Kigali, Rwanda. The partnership’s goal is to support the Government of Rwanda and USAID/Rwanda’s education development goals that promote gender equality and female empowerment.

This partnership is part of a broader new effort known as the Women’s Leadership Program, whose purpose is to support national and local development goals that promote gender equality and female empowerment. Subject to the availability of U.S. government funding, HED anticipates issuing a total of five RFAs for higher education partnerships under the Women’s Leadership Program in Rwanda (2), Paraguay, South Sudan and Armenia.
