i-icon World Bank Income Classification:Low Income The World Bank classifies economies for analytical purposes into four income groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high income. For this purpose it uses gross national income (GNI) per capita data in U.S. dollars, converted from local currency using the World Bank Atlas method, which is applied to smooth exchange rate fluctuations. i-icon Least Developed Country:Yes Since 1971, the United Nations has recognized LDCs as a category of States that are deemed highly disadvantaged in their development process, for structural, historical and also geographical reasons. Three criteria are used: per capita income, human assets, and economic vulnerability. i-icon Gender Inequality Index:0.575 GII is a composite metric of gender inequality using three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and the labour market. A low GII value indicates low inequality between women and men, and vice-versa. i-icon Gender Development Index:0.723 GDI measures gender inequalities in achievement in three basic dimensions of human development: health, education, and command over economic resources.

Strategic Note Outcome Progress Note Showing data of : 2022

Women farmers and cooperatives’ engagement in higher segments of the food and agricultural value chains is increased

In this reporting year, UN Women in Rwanda is on track in increasing Women farmers’ and cooperatives’ engagement in higher segments of the food and agricultural value chains. With UN Women’s collaboration with Nile Basin Club, Rwanda Development Organization (RDO), INADES Formation Rwanda, 2,772 women agripreneurs with timesaving, productive, and transformative technologies. In an effort to strengthen women’s access to transformative technologies, the agripreneurs received cooking kits such as improved cooking stoves and wonder boxes that helped women to save up to 80% of energy normally used for cooking and promotion of the use of climate-smart technologies. Time-saving technology and equipment such as water tanks, Tri-motorcycles, harvest crates, grain silos, sprayers, and wheelbarrows were provided to women agripreneurs which helped to reduce and redistribute the care burden and allowed for more productive dedicated time to income-generating activities. Furthermore, tools and guidelines on the use of timesaving and climate-resilient equipment were developed by UN Women in partnership with INADES Formation Rwanda to provide regular guidance to women beneficiaries on how to properly maintain and sustain the time-saving technologies. https://africa.unwomen.org/en/stories/news/2022/09/un-women-provides-time-saving-energy-efficient-kits-to-reduce-domestic-care-work-for-rural-women-in-four-districts-of-rwanda Additionally, UN Women collaborated with the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MINICOM), New Faces New Voices (NFNV) and Hexakomb to develop the e-commerce platform “buyfromwomen e-commerce platform” for women entrepreneurs to undertake the advantage of new technologies through buying and selling their products and services online, access to business opportunities information and market linkages including in the context of AfCFTA. In this context, the “buyfromwomen” platform was upgraded with e-commerce functionalities/features informed by women entrepreneurs’ needs represented by selected 25 women entrepreneurs who also piloted the testing phase to improve its functionality. The e-commerce platform when operational, promises to be effective in supporting women-led businesses and contributing to the government of Rwanda’s GEF commitments. Efforts to bring in many stakeholders and harmonize with existing similar interventions in the country are being discussed in collaboration with the Ministry of trade and industry, FAO, and UNCDF which will also assure the platform’s sustainability.
