As part of the International Women’s Day (IWD) celebrated on 8 March every year, Ruzizi III Energy Limited (REL) staff in Rwanda visited the maternity ward at Muhima Hospital to share joy, support, and encouragement with new mothers.

This special initiative aligns with REL’s Corporate Social Responsibility efforts and serves as a heartfelt tribute to the strength, resilience, and love of women who bring life into the world.

REL’s team engaged with the mothers, distributed essential care packages, and reaffirmed REL’s commitment to empowering women in all aspects of the project.

As the World Celebrated the IWD2025 with the theme #AccelerateAction, REL continuously ensures that it enhances the theme by breaking barriers and ensuring gender equality through transforming vision into reality- today, not tomorrow. At REL, it is not just developing hydropower, it is driving sustainable progress and championing gender equality. REL recognizes that though women in renewable energy may be few, their impact is driving real changes. By leading with expertise and purpose, advocating for inclusion and supporting one another, women strengthen both the energy industry and communities.
