By Mid-February 2017, the implementation status of resolutions shows that 10 resolutions were implemented at more than 75%, 4 resolutions were implemented at above 50% but less than 75%, and this shows that, no resolution was off track.

Prime Minister Anastase Murekezi was presenting the implementation status of the last 13th NLR to participants of the 14th National Leadership Retreat that kicked off this 24th February 2017 in Gabiro Combat Training Center.

The National Leadership Retreat commonly known as Umwiherero, meaning retreat, refers to a tradition in Rwandan culture whereby leaders would convene to reflect on issues affecting their communities. The objective of these meetings was to identify solutions and commit to achieving them. Today, the concept has been adapted and refers to a gathering of the country’s senior leaders to solve ongoing challenges.

This year’s retreat puts a particular emphasis on unlocking bottlenecks that affect implementation of key government programmes and devise ways to ensure improvement in delivery of leaders’ promises. An estimated 300 leaders from Central Government, Local Government, parastatals and the private sector are in attendance.

Umwiherero provides a unique opportunity for Rwanda’s leaders to reflect on the country’s progress and identify strategies to accelerate the delivery of national priorities.
