No full textAsbestos health concern in Rwanda became serious recently and the 'National Action Plan for Eradication of Asbestos from Buildings' was established in April 2011. The project to implement this plan was unique as the eradication was based on advanced technologies but with some amendments so that the technology became feasible in one of the least developed countries. About 1.3 million m 2 of asbestos cement roofs were identified in total. The implementation was without donor assistance except for author's technical support. This could be a model case of safe asbestos eradication to be applied in other developing countries especially in Africa
