Welcome to Equitable Health Organization
Equitable Health Organization (EHO) is a non-government organization based in Rwanda, founded in May 2023 by students and their former teacher, united by a shared scholarship experience. They encounter marginalized children with disabilities fueled by a passion for fighting against discrimination prevalent in both the community and traditional culture.
EHO stands as their collective endeavour to support and advocate for the health, education, and social welfare of children with disabilities under 18 years old. According to the 2012 (RPHC) Fourth Rwanda Population and Housing Census, the report revealed that 20% (87,900) of the population of persons with disabilities are children between the ages of five and eighteen. However, the proportion of children under five is not accounted for which leads to the lost opportunity to address disability at the early stage of life. The organization is dedicated to making a positive impact on the lives of these vulnerable children. Through its initiatives, it aims to contribute to breaking down barriers and fostering inclusivity in Rwandan society. The organization operates under the authorization of the Rwanda Governance Board, with operational certificate number: No 1215/RGB/NGO/OC/05/2023.
