Rwanda Public Sector Governance Program-For-Results

closed

The objective of this Public Sector Governance Program for Results Program is to enhance Rwanda’s Public Financial Management and statistics systems to improve transparency and accountability in the use of public funds, revenue mobilization and the quality and accessibility of development data for decision making. Rwanda’s development performance over the past decade has been one of the best in the world. A highly strategic approach to development, which has galvanized domestic and external resources around nationally defined medium- and long-term goals, has delivered strong economic growth (7–8 percent per year), a significant decline in poverty, and a modest reduction in inequality. Nonmaterial measures of well-being have also improved, with impressive progress across the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The results framework represents a results chain for achieving the PDO. It covers three key results areas: (a) increased efficiency in national and subnational revenue collection, (b) improved national and subnational transparency and accountability in the use of public funds, and (c) improved use of development data for decision making. Each results area is reflected in some DLIs, PAPs, and the program implementation support plan.
