NoteCooperation with Rwanda has been a sensitive topic for quite some time. This report decribes the debate between governments, NGOs etc. that believe in the possibility of an economic miracle and the emergence of good governance, pitched against those who think that the democratic space has been severely limited, that agricultural policies do not benefit the poor, that the legal system is a tool misused by the state and that the Rwandan elite continues to loot the Democratic Republic of Congo. The intention of this report is to bring the debate to a higher level by trying to describe, based on renowned public sources (World Bank, UNDP, Human Rights Watch, ICG, academic works), the actual tendencies within Rwanda on these different topics.
