Rural Movement Organization (RMO) is an Afghan NGO with Head Quarters in Kabul. It was established in 2014 as the continuation of the Belgian NGO "Solidarité Afghanistan Belgique" (SAB).
As a replacement of Solidarity Belgium Afghanistan (SAB), RMO has a long experience in implementing vocational training, agriculture, education, and emergency response projects. On top of it, RMO collaborated with and became a formal partner of Geres (www.geres.eu) for around 10 years, which enabled RMO to achieve an excellent experience and knowledge in the in-house energy efficiency environment protection, and climate change sectors. In the past 10 years, together with Geres, RMO implemented a number of medium to large-sized projects in Kabul, Bamyan, Maidan Wardak, and Badakhshan Provinces.
RMO operations include work on market-based solutions, developing value chains, as these create jobs and are often key to the sustainability of the solutions deployed. In both urban and rural settings, RMO has also contributed to technical improvements to the agriculture and vegetable production sector by building passive solar greenhouses, bioclimatic cellars, as well as AESS solutions, including training, a toolkit, and marketing support to women beneficiaries.
