Solution & Innovation
An important pillar of the DigiCenter is to support the development of digital solutions that solve social challenges in Rwanda. These are developed in collaboration with the Ministry of ICT and Innovation, the Rwanda Information Society Authority (RISA) and other authorities such as RURA or RBC.
The solutions themselves are created through different approaches. While some solutions are created by the community through hackathons and design challenges, others are publicly tendered.
Over the last 3 years, more than 15 digital solutions have already been created, for example in the areas of smart cities, smart agriculture or governance. In addition, the solutions address various Sustainable Development Goals of the UN such as Gender Equality, Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure or Reduced Inequalities. Innovators can access one of the innovation labs at the DigiCenter to tinker and fiddle on their solutions. The digital solutions developed in the DigiCenter are explained in detail below.
Solutions
Communities bring stakeholders from both public and private institutions together and encourage Rwandans interested in the above topics to innovate solutions to the existing problems.
