The Government of Rwanda (GoR) is presently involved in the process of developing Sector Strategies to implement EDPRS programmes. As stated in the Country’s Vision 2020 one of the identified development pillars is the Human Resource Development (HRD).The importance of this Pillar lies in the empowerment of individuals through developing their skills. The results of independent evaluation of Poverty Reduction Strategy Programme (PRSP) 1 revealed that capacity constraints especially those related to inadequate skills constitute a major impediment for the realisation of PRSP 1 set targets. Using this learning experience, the Government is undertaking initiatives to address these challenges so as to make EDPRS a reality

It is in this context that the GoR decided to establish Rwanda Workforce Development Authority (RWoDA) which is an institutional framework to provide a strategic response to the skills development challenges facing the country across all sectors of the economy.
