Take a look at another update of the Nile Institute Rwanda. The end of the structural works in six lovely steps.
The end-of-year celebrations were brief but positive. After a two-day break, construction resumed. The masonry work is progressing well, with interior walls leveled and exterior masonry looking beautiful. Cleanup and finishing tasks are underway, including jointing the outer walls and making the roof water-resistant. The construction site is gradually transforming into an ‘institute’!

In 2023, the Flemish Government launched the “International Climate Financing Project – GSTIC Climate Program” for the third time. The selection was announced in mid-December; totaling a whopping amount of 17.4 million euros distributed over 19 selected projects (of 102 submitted). One of the projects is called ‘Capitan Taki’ and allows VITO to allocate €570,435.
Since our last report on the pouring of 38 columns earlier in July, we are thrilled to share yet another update on the progress of the Nile Institute Rwanda construction works.
The concrete floor slab was poured at the end of June. The drying out of the 15 cm thick slab takes 28 days. It is watered daily to prevent too rapid drying and reduced quality. Time to start the next phase: preparation for pouring the columns.
After a lot of preparation works, the 28th & 29th of June mark an important milestone for the Nile Institute Rwanda. With the help of more than 100 people from the village, the concrete floor plate was poured, finishing the foundation works on schedule!
While last time the Groundworks & base Foundation works were documented, this time we’re moving on to the advanced foundations in preparation of the floor plate.
Learn and see more of the next phase of the Nile Institute construction; the Foundation works. 36 foundation wells are constructed on the site.
