Rwanda Covid-19 Poverty Monitor Bulletin

Abstract

This is one of a number of bulletins produced by the Chronic Poverty Advisory Network (CPAN) during the Covid-19 pandemic. Focused on Rwanda, the bulletin reports on areas of concern for the poorest and potential impoverishment; overlapping crises; coping strategies; support through the pandemic; and respondents' proposals for government priorities to mitigate the effects of Covid-19. CPAN country bulletins are compiled using a combination of original qualitative data collected from a small number of affected people in each country, interviews with local leaders and community development actors, and secondary data from a range of available published sources. Interviews for this bulletin were conducted in Kicukiro and Burera districts between 26 October and 28 November 2022.
