Rwanda

Rwanda--perhaps best known for its horrible genocide in the 1990's--has made great strides forward as a nation, with a new emphasis on human rights, the environment, and dealing with HIV and AIDS. Based in Rwanda and led by Augustin Bahati, the Inclusive Mission for Health and Hope seeks justice for people of all sexual orientations and gender identities. Their work in 2025 includes providing start-up funds for small LGBTQ+ owned businesses, nutritional aid for 300 vulnerable secondary students, goats and sheep for those needing nutrition/income, along with health insurance for over 120 families. The Center for Health and Hope and Inclusive Mission also sponsor educational conferences regarding HIV, AIDS, and sexual orientation.
