Embrace The Beauty Of GOD's Creation

TIDA RWANDA

In Rwanda, technology is incredibly increasing. Papers and paperboard, articles of pulp, articles of stationery, notebooks, folders, albums of paper, envelopes, letter cards, plain postcards, boxes, pouches of paperboard, and other paper varieties are widely used. Eighty percent of Rwandans need paper and paperboard daily for different functions. Do all Rwandans know that all these products are manufactured from forest deforestation? Initiating a paperless approach should be a focus on reducing paper consumption in our working processes, meaning less printing of documents. Additionally, utilizing single-use plastic in item packaging could serve as an alternative to reduce paperboard production. With the help of this project ( NDI UMUDIGITALE), we aim to mitigate Rwanda's contribution to the emissions from paper production-related deforestation.

NDI UMUDIGITALE Project

Rwanda, and the world in general, prefers digitalization in nature conservation and making the planet great. This is only the most recent commitment to stop forest loss. Back in 2005, the UN forum on forests committed to reversing the loss of forest cover worldwide by 2015. In 2008, 67 countries pledged to try and reach zero net deforestation by 2020. This was followed by the New York Declaration on Forests in 2014, which saw 200 countries, civil society groups, and indigenous people's organizations commit to halving deforestation by 2020 and ending it by 2030

How TIDA is different?

How does TIDA work?

TIDA projects do share a community emphasis, with a focus on science and research, traditional and natural practical conservation, environmental education, through site-based projects and wider advocacy.

  • How TIDA is different?
  • Statement of Faith TIDA
  • TIDA five distinctive commitments:

We are a Christian

TIDA's activities are based on God's love for all creation as shown in the Bible or in Jesus Christ. With others who share the Christian heritage we are committed to the preservation of creation, and we do this with the hope that Christ is our king. We believe that we have been called to it by Christ as a service given to us. We do this by praying, encouraging each other through the Bible, and the main purpose of all our activities is to give glory to God.

We are multiple

In order to expand and spread the truth of what we believe, TIDA enjoys the relationship between us and other organizations or ministries in Rwanda or outside of Rwanda, we do not only work with church members, but we work with other people of culture and 'beliefs that are different from ours. Because we believe it is important in our work since it makes more to learn.

We advocates beyond the church

We are credible advocates for conservation beyond the church. While a TIDA is distinctively Christian, we choose not to speak exclusively to Christian audiences. We are working to show god’s love for all creation, including people. Worldwide we work in many local contexts, so our projects reflect a great diversity of cultures, communities, ecosystems and approaches. Our aim is that they are all characterized by good science and good biblical teachings, by healthy involvement in local communities and local churches and by being prepared to work alongside others who may not always share our beliefs. We work with nature, live out our convictions and seek to communicate the significance of this to many audiences.

TIDA

• We believe in one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. God created the heavens and the earth; and, made humans in God’s image, to be in loving relationship with God and to be stewards of all that God had made. (Genesis 1-2)

TIDA

• Although humans were created to be in loving relationship with God, each other and all creation; in our sin and disobedience, we rebelled against God. As a result, our fellowship with God was broken, and all of creation was subject to the effects of human sin. (Genesis 3)

TIDA

• We believe in Jesus Christ, fully God and fully human, begotten not made. Christ came into the world to reconcile humanity to God. Through his teaching and actions Jesus demonstrated the power and presence of the kingdom of God: justice, healing, hope, and mercy. Although sinless, Jesus obediently suffered unto death, paying the penalty for human sin in order to reconcile humanity and all creation to God. (I Peter 3:18; Romans 8) Through his resurrection he triumphed over death. God offers us salvation and reconciliation by grace through faith in Jesus’ death and resurrection. (John 3) We believe Jesus will return in glory and restore all things to himself. (Revelation 21: 1-5)

TIDA

• We believe in the Holy Spirit, the presence of Christ, who leads people to repentance, restores those who respond in faith, and guides us as we seek to live faithful lives that honor God. (John 14: 26; Romans 8: 14-17)

TIDA

• We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God. (2 Timothy 3:16-17) The Bible is the story of God’s ongoing relationship with his creation, covenants and saving work.

TIDA

• We believe in the spiritual unity of believers through our Lord Jesus Christ. The church is the world-wide community of followers of Jesus, with equality across race, gender and class differences. (Galatians 3:16) God calls us to be united in faith to do the work of the Kingdom of God on earth. This includes proclaiming the gospel in word and deed by making disciples of all people (Matthew 25: 31-46; Matthew 28: 16-20) and working together for the renewal of God’s creation. (e.g., Acts 3:21; Romans 8: 18-21)

TIDA

• We believe Jesus will return in glory to complete the work of restoring and renewing God’s creation and those followers of Jesus will live eternally with God. (Isaiah 11:1-9)
