It also aligns with the current policy environment as the government seeks to reform and build institutions to support the private sector.

This theme will focus on how Rwanda can accelerate and manage the transition from subsistence agriculture and improve the opportunities and well being of rural citizens. We believe this is important because agriculture plays dominant role in GDP, employment, exports and poverty and majority of Rwanda’s population is rural. |  |
Because lack of skills is a major constraint to growth and a source of regional disadvantage, in this theme, we will examine how Rwanda can overcome a legacy of underinvestment in skills, and develop the education and training it needs for the knowledge based economy that it seeks to build. |  |
In this theme, we will look at how to strengthen the contract between citizens and the state to ensure citizens receive better quality services and have more chance to hold the government accountable for these services. We chose this because it has a major impact on citizen quality of life as well as overall development outcomes. Stakeholders were also concerned with the lack of service ethic in Rwanda. |  |
