IDEAL – Rwanda

IDEAL Rwanda (Inclusive Decisions at the Local Level) is a five-year programme that focused on urbanisation as a key element to achieve the transformation of Rwanda. Rwanda’s secondary city Districts struggle with urban development processes within their local governments. IDEAL Rwanda supported the districts in urban planning, local economic development and social welfare. The Hague Academy designed a capacity-building approach that helped the programme in achieving gender-related outputs. 

Main goal

IDEAL Rwanda aims to strengthen the management and inclusiveness of urbanisation processes around Rwanda. 

Objectives

• Promote female participation in the local government of the six secondary cities;
• Create a pool of men and women in local government to challenge “organisational culture” and ensure full and meaningful participation of women in decision making and key policy areas at all levels in districts; and
• Identify agents of change within the district to develop their skills in advocating for women’s participation within the districts.
