Having weathered one of the worst humanitarian crises imaginable just fifteen years ago, and with an impoverished countryside plagued by HIV/AIDS, hunger, and malaria, Rwanda seems an unlikely place for an economic renaissance.

Such a future is far from guaranteed, and whether it comes to fruition depends largely on the country’s system of education. For Rwanda, more than for almost any other country, education holds the key to the future. Rwanda is a small, landlocked country in Central Africa (about the size of Maryland) with a population of just more than 10 million people. With the highest population density of any African country and a high growth rate, Rwanda cannot depend on its natural resources for economic Page 3 REBUILDING RWANDA development.
