Broadband Connectivity Infrastructure Projects

This project focuses on enhancing broadband connectivity in Rwanda, including a national backbone fiber-optic network, the Kigali Metropolitan Network, and a Wireless Broadband Network. It aims to strengthen ICT infrastructure, develop a skilled workforce, and drive the growth of an IT-driven service sector. The projects involve interconnecting various government agencies, schools, hospitals, and border posts with high-speed internet services. The infrastructure enhancements will boost efficiency in banking systems, tourism, and public service delivery, ultimately supporting Rwanda's vision for science and technology advancement. The project status indicates significant progress in civil works, site acquisition, and network operation center setup. The initiative is crucial for accelerating Rwanda's digital transformation and economic development.
