Established in 2007 by a group of Scottish businesspeople with
first-hand experience and knowledge of Rwanda, the Together Partnership is a
catalyst for change. It is working
to transform the lives of people in
Rwanda by enabling individuals and
businesses to create partnerships
with - and provide financial backing,
expertise and other support to -
Rwandan-based enterprises.
The Partnership has been established by a group of Scottish
businesspeople with first-hand experience of Rwanda. We
understand the massive challenges in Rwanda and seek to use
business principles to bring about social change. Our priority at
present is to support the innovative Rwandan company Ikirezi, which
has strong Scottish links and is achieving so much – socially and
economically – for so many people in the country. Other Rwandan
companies are being chosen for their capacity to transform the lives
of those who work for and with them.
But this is not just a one-way street. We believe that we also offer real benefits for companies here, ranging from demonstrating
corporate social responsibility through to staff motivation and retention, professional development, marketing and PR opportunities,
job exchanges, cultural links and much more.
One thing is certain. By becoming involved with the Together Partnership, you will change lives.
