Today, the Social Protection and Governance & Decentralisation Sectors convened a one-day retreat in Kigali under the theme “Align and Advance.” The retreat aimed to strengthen inter-sectoral collaboration, review implementation progress, identify actionable cross-sectoral synergies, and develop practical solutions to accelerate the achievement of sector targets.

In his opening remarks, Hon. Minister @Dominiquehab reaffirmed Rwanda’s conviction that sustainable development is anchored in strong partnerships and effective collaboration that deliver impact beyond projects.

Reflecting on this partnership, the Minister stated: “Throughout this process, Development Partners and other stakeholders have played an instrumental role by providing technical expertise, policy insights, financing, and implementation support that have enriched both the design and delivery of our national development agenda”.
