Kigali Institute of Science and Technology
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kigali Institute of Science, Technology and Management (KIST) in Kigali, Rwanda is the first technology-focused institution of higher education to be created by the Rwanda government.
It was established in November, 1997. Major partners in its creation were the Ministry of Education, the UNDP Rwanda, and GTZ, a German enterprise.
[edit] Awards
KIST has won two Ashden Awards, one in 2005 for their work with biogas plants to process sewage at prisons and provide gas for cooking[1], and another in 2002 for the development of a fuel-efficient bread oven[2].
