The Nyandungu wetland complex covers an area of 121.7 hectares that has been restored. The restoration of Nyandungu wetland highlights the management techniques and green technologies that can be used in Rwanda’s secondary cities, therefore demonstrating its scalability as a model for other wetlands and increasing its potential legacy.

NUWEP transformed Nyandungu wetland into a recreational park as outlined in the City of Kigali Master Plan and shows that wetland conservation can have economic, social, and environmental benefits to the inhabitants of Kigali, Rwanda, and visiting tourists.
