Rwanda Interfaith Council on Health(RICH) (RICH) was established in 2003 under the name of “Rwanda Network of Religious Organizations against HIV&AIDS (RCLS)” as a non-profit making organization to fight HIV and AIDS by ensuring effective coordination of FBOs interventions for the response to HIV&AIDS in Rwanda. Although the Network was initiated for HIV, it is now involved in other health issues such as family planning,maternal and infant health, malaria, tuberculosis, nutrition, hygiene, and non-communicable diseases. This change was due to the expansion of scope of work from the HIV response that was the initial mission to the Health Promotion in general
