The British Council in Rwanda fosters connections, understanding, and trust between the UK and Rwanda through a variety of programmes. Our work in English and Schools enhances the direct English capacity-building of in-service teachers to enhance their English language proficiency.

We work closely with Ministries of Education and other trusts and foundations to deliver on English language capacity building and mainstreaming gender and disability.

We administer globally recognised English proficiency tests, which help students attend the best universities and find amazing career opportunities. We administer exams on behalf of professional boards, universities, and colleges in the UK and globally.

In Arts and Culture, we strengthen the emerging creative economy and foster economic development across arts, culture, heritage, and creative industries; we aim to make a lasting impact and have strategically positioned to directly contribute to Rwanda’s economic growth ambitions and job creation for young people.
