Baylor Africa New Life Initiative
Following the signing of a MOU in 2020, Baylor University announced the establishment of a partnership with Africa New Life Ministries, a nonprofit organization headquartered in Portland, Oregon and Rwandan run, creating the Baylor Africa New Life Initiative. This partnership, led by Baylor’s Robbins College of Health and Human Sciences, seeks to address and resolve systemic poverty through research and sustained engagement with the communities served in the Republic of Rwanda by Africa New Life Ministries (ANL).
