With women occupying more than 60% of
seats in parliament and leading various
national institutions, Randa continues
to lead globally in gender inclusion.
This progress is also reflected in how
families plan, grow, and contribute to
national development.

gender equality in Rwanda is no longer
just about balancing numbers. Promoting
gender equality also implies that
everyone is brings
what she or her he has. Everyone contributes
contributes
ideas. It implies a dialogues and in
Rwanda as you know there is also we
encourage a planning from the family a
family plan kind of action plan because
the family is also a an institution
>> in Rwanda the the last I would say 20
years there's been a deliberate
attention to gender matters and with
that as a statistics office we we have a
team of analysts
gender specialist that look through all
our statistics that we compile through
censuses, through surveys, through
administrative statistics and are able
to emphasize analysis based on gender.
In all our reports in 2024, women held
almost 64% of seats in the Chamber of
Deputies. In the Senate, women were
again dominant with almost 54% in the
judiciary. Female representation was at
43% with the chief justice being female.
Women held roughly three in 10
ministerial positions in the cabinet.
Gender expert Sarah Montesi says Randa's
gender transformative policies rooted in
constitutional and legal reforms have
enabled equal participation in all
sectors. This empowerment extends to
family level. there is sustainable
development because we have both uh men
and women participating in the economy.
Um which was not the case before. Um and
though we see an increase in population
of course um it is rational. We have uh
good policies on um access to contra contraception.
contraception.
So women are able to get uh family
planning services even at the at the

>> Ronda's population has reached 14.1
million with life expectancy at 70 years
for both men and women according to the
statistics office. Experts attribute the
country's stable population growth to
inclusive household planning and gender
equality. However, while progress has
been made, officials note that culture
and religious beliefs still limit
women's autonomy.
>> We are still having the remaining steps
to do in mainstreaming gender across all
sectors and at different levels till the
family level, the household level. We
have some remaining steps to do. We have
some remaining steps to do in women's
economic empowerment. The ICV7 revealed
that women's are predominantly in
informal jobs. We still have some
remaining uh uh steps to do in
leveraging on social norms, challen
deconstructing the social norms, the
negative social norms
>> and with that annual report um we we are
making effort to engage various leaders
at all levels to understand this
information. see the the variations
male, female, where there's still gaps,
gender gaps, emphasize that if it is
access to financial services, if it is
access to credit and um that's our our
way of one compiling the statistics, two
packaging them well, three engaging
people to understand them.
>> Officials say gender equality in Rhonda
is not just a social goal, it is a
constant national development. And as
Ronda continues to mainstream gender
across sectors, the country is charting
a model for inclusive growth. According
to the National Institute of Statistics
of Rhonda, gender equality over the past
20 years in this country has meant more
girls enrolling in higher levels of
education, women accessing finances, but
also understanding their human and
reproductive health rights. Pigatti
