Rwanda: an effective development model, rising to the challenge of its sustainability

Jules Porte

Working Paper from Agence française de développement

Abstract: Rwanda emerged from the 1994 genocide in a considerably weakened state. The country's strongman, Paul Kagame, came to power during this period of instability and gradual reconstruction. He became President of the Republic in 2000, and is still head of state today. The authorities, who derive their political legitimacy from the development imperative, play a central role in economic planning.
