Dr Ishmael Noko, General Secretary of the Lutheran World Federation (LWF) and president of the Inter-Faith Action for Peace in Africa (IFAPA) at the project\u2019s inauguration on 19 March 2008.

The LWF Department for World Service (DWS) program in Rwanda coordinates the implementation of the project, which is managed by the Inter-Faith Commission of Rwanda. A local water users\u2019 committee, which includes representatives from all major religious communities in the area, oversees the day-to-day administration. Rwanda\u2019s Minister for Water, Environment and Natural Resources Mr Bikoro Munyanganizi, highlighted the need for commitment, partnership and good management of resources, as he officially inaugurated the project together with Noko and Mr Niels Christiansen, Global Vice President of Public Affairs for the Nestl\u00e9 group. \u201cThe provision of clean drinking water to such a large number of people fits clearly within Nestl\u00e9\u2019s fundamental aim of making investments that have lasting benefits to society,\u201d said Christiansen. He expressed his appreciation for the partnership \u201cin this critical venture to create sustainable water solutions for communities in Africa.\u201d Image source: <\/font>farm2.static.flickr.com. &gt; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lutheranworld.org\/News\/LWI\/EN\/2186.EN.html\" target=\"_blank\">Continue<\/a>.<o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>Message received by Covalence <span class=\"LinkBlueTransMedium\">| Country: Rwanda<\/span><span class=\"LinkBlueTransMedium\"> <\/span><span class=\"LinkBlueTransMedium\">| Company: <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalquote.com\/newTemplate\/index.php\/ethicalquote\/?value=5\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalquote.com\/newTemplate\/index.php\/ethicalquote\/?value=5\">Nestl\u00e9<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial\" lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><span class=\"LinkBlueTransMedium\">| <\/span>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lutheranworld.org\/News\/LWI\/EN\/2186.EN.html\" target=\"_blank\"><span id=\"slt_site\"><span id=\"slt_article\">Lutheran World Federation News<\/span><\/span><\/a><span id=\"slt_site\"><span id=\"slt_article\"> <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><span class=\"LinkBlueTransMedium\">| Correspondent: <a href=\"mailto:fuldep@yahoo.fr\">Barth\u00e9l\u00e9my Kilosh, FULDEP<\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A community water project inaugurated in Rwanda\u2019s eastern district of Kirehe, offers a new model of cooperation between religious communities and public and private sectors in pursuit of human development and peace. \u201cThis is a historic milestone for interfaith cooperation and public and private partnerships in Africa,\u201d remarked Rev.
