Country program Overview

The Government of Rwanda (GoR) strives to achieve Universal Health Coverage (UHC) by enabling equitable access to quality health services for the population as outlined in the Fourth Health Sector Strategic Plan (HSSP IV 2018 – 2024). This commitment has been made against a backdrop of rising health care costs, changing donor landscape and calls for improved health sector sustainability. Acknowledging this, the Government aims to employ effective, equitable, efficient, and sustainable health care financing and systems strengthening, putting an emphasis on Primary Health Care (PHC) as the cornerstone of a strong and sustainable health system. HSSP IV implementation ends by end of 2024 and preparations for the next HSSP is expected resume at the beginning of 2024 and CHAI will provide all the necessary support MoH leadership in the end-term evaluation of the HSSI IV, generation and compilation of the necessary evidence to set HSSP V targets, strategic objectives and costed implementation plan accordingly.


Recently, to strengthen the PHC system in the country, the Rwanda Ministry of Health (MoH) embarked on the new PHC system reforms mainly focusing on four priority areas. The first priority area is the health work force. The Government targets to quadruple the density of highly skilled priority health professionals, from 1.1 healthcare workers per 1000 people to 4.4 healthcare workers per 1000 people, in 4 years (4 x 4 reform) to accommodate the growing demand for access to range of PHC services and attain UHC targets. The second priority area in the reform is strengthening the PHC community systems through review of the community healthworkforce, reinforce health centers and health posts with infrastructure, diagnostics, essential medicines and management to address barriers to access.  The third area of the reform is establishing evidence-based medicine and systems establishing a culture of evidence-generation and use to inform policy decisions, intervention planning, and performance management through all levels of the Ministry. This includes a focus on research development and innovation. The fourth priority area of the reform is also cross-cutting with a focus on strengthening internal coordination and communication within and beyond government agencies and institutions through digital integration as well as institutionalizing capacity for data analysis and use through improved M&E, which will in turn enhance management decisions, coordination, and planning. In order to implement these reforms, additional technical and financial resources need to be mobilized from domestic and external sources.

Finance Manager at Volkswagen Mobility Solutions Rwanda Ltd | Kigali :Deadline: 25-10-2023

Volkswagen Mobility Solutions Rwanda

Rwanda aspires to become an upper-middle income country by 2035, and a high-income country by 2050. Guided by Vision 2050, the agriculture sector will be totally transformed with professional farmers and commercialized value chains. This will require modern market-oriented and climate resilient agriculture, with scaled up use of modern technologies to maximize productivity (Vision 2050).


Agriculture mechanization lags behind with regards to Rwanda’s agriculture transformation and modernization goals. Out of the 1.4 million hectares of arable land of the country, only 70,740 ha of farmed land are mechanized, i.e. 5%. The National Agriculture Policy emphasizes importance of mechanization for increasing labor and land productivity, in a context-specific framework that responds to the specific needs of the country, and outlines following policy actions:

  • Establish a mechanization center to prototype and test mechanization technologies;
  • Promote mechanization at the farm-level and across the value chains by linking farmers to sellers of technologies;
  • Create mechanization service centers to support operation and maintenance of the equipment;
  • Foster labor-saving technologies, especially to reduce women’s workload and allow them to allocate more time to other productive activities and child feeding and care.

Volkswagen Mobility Solution Rwanda Ltd established the project titled “GenFarm Project”, in which electric tractors, electric scooters and other electric agriculture mechanization technologies will be tested and used in farming operations. Electric tractors and electric scooters offer a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to conventional diesel tractors and motorcycles.

The objective of GenFarm Project is to make a positive sustainable socio-economic and environmental impact on the community in which the project operates by creating a carbon neutral business ecosystem centered on electric tractors and e-scooters while increasing agricultural production and making rural mobility possible and easy. The project is intended as pilot project for the duration of 3 years to demonstrate the technical and financial viability of the GenFarm project.
