Why Our Work Matters…
Countries with democratic freedoms are more capable of fulfilling their citizens' potential.
USAID's Democracy and Governance program in Rwanda builds on past progress to deepen ongoing reconciliation efforts across the country, strengthen government and civil society, provide legal advice to disadvantaged communities, and empower young women.
USAID's Democracy and Governance program in Rwanda works with the Government of Rwanda to:
- Train justice sector specialists;
- Empower women to understand their rights;
- Enable civil society to better impact government decisions; and
- Work with legal aid centers to improve access to legal aid among the poor, people living with HIV/AIDS, orphans and other vulnerable groups.
