MINALOC highlights that Umuganda, over different periods, has played a significant role in the well-being of citizens, community bonding, and economic development through various activities.
These activities include the construction of medical infrastructure, such as health centers, classrooms, the creation and repair of roads, building and renovation of housing for the underprivileged and the construction of offices for government institutions such as sector and village offices, police stations, among others.
Data released in 2025, indicates that by the end of the previous fiscal year, on June 30, 2024, various Umuganda activities in Rwanda collectively amounted to Frw22,865,855,703.
Key achievements included the establishment of 66.957 hectares of terraced fields, the construction of 32,221 homes for the underprivileged, and the building of 95,570 toilets for low-income households.
Additionally, during that year, roads with a total length of 39.502 kilometers were repaired, and 13,399 bridges were constructed, among other diverse activities.
MINALOC also noted that Umuganda continues to progress, as in 2007, its value was recorded at Frw4,112,943,849, reflecting an increase of more than five times by June 2024.
In this regard, the ministry urges Rwandans to continue participating in Umuganda activities as a way of building their country.
