  • Transport Sector Policy
    REPUBLIC OF RWANDA MINISTRY OF INFRASTRUCTURE TRANSPORT SECTOR POLICY December 2008 1 TRANSPORT SECTOR POLICY I. INTRODUCTION 1. The transport sector is a strategic sector for Rwanda, and the situation of being landlocked has a negative impact on economic growth and development of the country. The exceptionally high cost of transport at national as well as international levels, as well as insufficient affordable and accessible modes of transport for people in both urban and rural areas, constitute a major constraint which must be taken into account with the sector policy to achieve the short medium and long-term development goals that Rwanda has mandated. 2. The present sectoral policy defines the vision of the Government for the sector as well as its strategic orientations, which will guide its actions during the next five years. These are summarized in the Transport Sector Policy Matrix (Appendix 1). The implementation of the sector policy is ensured through medium term programmes such as the Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) for the period 2009-2012 as annexed in Appendix 2. 3. The transport sector policy is inspired by the planning tools available in Rwanda, such as the Vision 2020, the Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy (EDPRS), the National Investment Strategy and the Medium Term Expenditure Framework. It takes into account other tools of reference such as the Millennium Development Objectives and the action plan of the Sub-Saharan Africa Transport Policy (SSATP). It also takes into account cross-cutting issues such as HIV/AIDS and environmental protection. I.1. Definition of the Transport Sector 4.

  • 1 Victims and Survivors from Cyangugu, Rwanda: the Politics Of
    Victims and survivors from Cyangugu, Rwanda: the politics of testimony after genocide Rachel Ibreck ‘When I went back, I discovered that my home was not there anymore. It was totally destroyed. I was the only Tutsi who had not died; there were hardly any left in the whole sector or commune. I felt isolated. I also felt afraid that I too would be killed.’ Claude, a Tutsi from Cyangugu, Rwanda, 1994.1 ‘I asked them why they had come to see me. They said: ‘because we know you collaborate with the Tutsis. But this time you have to show your commitment and help to kill the Tutsis.’ I told them: ‘firstly, I am not prepared to kill anyone. Secondly there should be an investigation to establish the truth about what has happened. And then whoever is responsible, Tutsi or Hutu or someone else, should be punished by the law.’ Félicien, a Hutu from Cyangugu, Rwanda, 1994.2 Victim testimony is foundational to the pursuit of justice and social repair after mass atrocities and should be recognised as an expression of courage and transformative political agency. After the 1994 genocide in Rwanda, survivors recounted horrors that could hardly be communicated, creating precious records of human suffering and loss. Since then, other victims of injustice and abuse have also given testimony to human rights organisations, despite fears of repression. Taken on their own terms, these harrowing individual testimonies are profound critiques of atrocities and political violence. Collectively, they form a powerful legacy and a counterpoint to narrow political framings of Rwanda’s history.

  • Rwanda 2019 Crime & Safety Report
    Rwanda 2019 Crime & Safety Report This is an annual report produced in conjunction with the Regional Security Office at the U.S. Embassy in Kigali, Rwanda. The current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication assesses Rwanda at Level 1, indicating travelers should exercise normal precautions. Overall Crime and Safety Situation The U.S. Embassy in Kigali does not assume responsibility for the professional ability or integrity of the persons or firms appearing in this report. The American Citizens’ Services (ACS) cannot recommend a particular individual or location and assumes no responsibility for the quality of service provided. Review OSAC’s Rwanda-specific page for original OSAC reporting, consular messages, and contact information, some of which may be available only to private-sector representatives with an OSAC password. Crime Threats There is moderate risk from crime in Kigali. Crime in Rwanda is rarely violent. Pickpocketing in crowded public places is common, as is petty theft from cars, hotel rooms, and other public places, including churches. Thefts of portable/mobile computing devices are common. Residential crimes tend to be crimes of opportunity, with unsecured items that are easy to transport and sell stolen from yards or unsecured homes. There has been no increase in forcible entry of homes to commit robberies; however, burglars generally target homes when residents are not present. U.S. citizens have reported a slight increase in residential theft throughout Kigali. Although violent crimes such as assault, robbery, rape, and home invasion occur in Rwanda, they are rarely committed against foreigners.

  • Transport Sector Strategic Plan for EDPRS2
    REPUBLIC OF RWANDA MINISTRY OF INFRASTRUCTURE FINAL REPORT ON Transport Sector Strategic Plan for EDPRS2 KIGALI: JUNE, 2013 Strategic Transport Plan for EDPRS2 Executive Summary Background Rwanda is a landlocked country and far from the maritime ports having the nearest port of Dar-Es-Salaam approximately 1 400 km away. The country lacks a link to regional railway and Inland Water Transport (IWT), which means most trades are conducted by road. Moreover, the country is fully dependent imported fuel for transport. Consequently transport costs of imports and exports are high and these have negative impacts on the economic growth and development of the country. Transport is therefore considered as a strategic sector to enable the expanding of the Rwandan economic base from predominantly agriculture based into the secondary and the tertiary sectors. Transport infrastructure in Rwanda is comprised of the following: (i) Road transport, which until now is the main form of passenger and goods transportation, with a network of about 14,000 km corresponding to a road density of 0.53 km/km², (ii) Air transport with, one international airport and six aerodromes spread across the country, and (iii) lake transport, which is limited mainly to Lake Kivu. Rwanda does not have a rail transportation system. The transport service sector in Rwanda is rather informal and uncoordinated. Although at present there are 41 companies and cooperatives, the major market share of vehicles come from individual operators. In terms of total available seat capacity, the individual operators provide 70% of the supply. When it comes to public transport for intercity and urban public transport, it is distinctively essential to the economic growth of Rwanda that an efficient transport system is in place for the movement of its citizens.
