The Catholic University of Rwanda (CUR), in partnership with Equity Bank Rwanda, is proudly leading a bold initiative that turns climate action into lasting impact. Through large-scale tree planting in Gisagara and Huye Districts, this collaboration is building a greener environment while creating real value for students, communities, and the nation.
GROWING A GREENER RWANDA, TOGETHER: CUR & EQUITY BANK
This collaboration creates clear value for both partners. For CUR, it strengthens the University’s image as a socially responsible institution where learning goes beyond classrooms and creates real change. For Equity Bank, it highlights strong leadership in sustainability and community investment, showing how business can drive positive environmental impact.
Students are at the heart of this initiative. By actively participating in tree planting, they gain practical experience, environmental awareness, and leadership skills that prepare them for the future job market. The University benefits from greener surroundings, stronger partnerships, and greater national visibility.
For local communities, fruit and agroforestry trees mean better nutrition, new income opportunities, and a healthier environment. Together, CUR and Equity Bank are not just planting trees—they are growing opportunity, strengthening communities, and building a greener, more sustainable Rwanda.
