Rural Women and Youth Empowerment for Development Agency (RuWYEDA)

BACKGROUND OF THE ORGANIZATION. Rural Women & Youth Empowerment for Development Agency (RuWYEDA), is a not-for-profit making, non-political, and a non-governmental rural based organization formed to carry out developmental programmes to empower the Rural Youth, Women and Children to improve on their Livelihood, Social and Economic Development in their Communities. The organization was formerly known as Gushegu Rural Youth Empowerment for Development Agency (GRuYEDA) until somewhere 2022 the name was changed to RuWYEDA. The main reason for the amendment of the organization’s name is to expand on the operational areas and the Zone of Influence of the organization. The thematic areas that RuWYEDA operates includes Access to Education and Quality Education, Child Rights Promotion & Protection, Employment Opportunities through Technical & Vocational Skills Training and Development, Conflict Resolutions, Peace & Human Security, Women & Youth Empowerment through capacity buildings, Promoting Women & Youth in Agriculture and Food Security Enhancement, Climate Change Adaptation and Environmental Sustainability, WASH and Nutrition. The main objective is to create awareness for the realization of an enabling environment for economic and social growth and a peaceful and healthy work force, especially among the Vulnerable and the Under-Privileged Women & Children as well as the Youth in the rural communities. Our unique project title is “Empowering the Rural Youth, Women and Children for Development” and we target the Marginalized, the Vulnerable and the Under-Privileged people in the society.
