CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION
1.0 BACK GROUND AND PURPOSE OF DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Governmentof Rwanda has many strategies to speed its economic growth and development. One of the strategies is economic
development and poverty reduction strategy where the districts develop their development plans to lead them in the next five years.
Its in that line that the government decided to embark on second EDPRS(EDPRS 2 was developed in line with the revised Vision
2020 targets and the 7 Year Government Program
The main objective of EDPRS 2 is to put Rwanda on a higher growth trajectory to ensure that the country achieves middle-income
status by 2020(better quality of life for all Rwandans).
Rwanda needs to achieve at least 11.5% average GDP growth per annum, and also aims to reduce poverty to below 30%.
.In the framework of decentralization, Districts are given power of autonomous management inclined towards the determination of
their own priorities expressed by the local community members. It is in this context that every district is required to design its five-
year development plans whose priorities are relevant to the national policies of development (Millennium Development Goals, Vision
2020, seven years government programmes and the EDPRS2.

The aim and purpose of the District Development Plan is to create space for Districts to reflect on the past achievements and potentials
so as to come up with the priorities that will drive the development of district for the next five years and be able to meet the social
economic development and needs of the population without contradicting with the national priorities.
The DDP also outlines the actions to be done in each sector for the next five years considering the thematic areas of EDPRS2.
District Development Plan acts as a tool of planning, implementing and coordinating the district activities to achieve sustainable
development.

1.1 METHODOLOGY ADOPTED IN DDP PREPARATION

The methodology was based on the guidelines that were developed by the ministry of finance and economic planning. For proper
coming up of the good DDP, the methodology below was adopted.

1.1.1 Documents Review and Analysis

The development of DDP saw many documents reviewed so as to understand and put into considerations the national priorities and
guidelines set. The documents which were viewed include

The EDPRS1 lessons learnt (2008- 2011)
Vision 2020 revised document
7YGP
EDPRS 2 principles and guidelines
2008-2012 Nyagatare district development plan
EICV3 report
DHS4 report
Draft of district priorities submitted to Minecofin and other relevant documents.

The review of the above documents was aimed at gathering the district information so as to assessits strength and weaknesses and
from there build strong plan that will see the district improve in the next five years.
11

1.1.2 Consultations with Sector ministries, district and provincial authorities
In the preparation of this development plan, all sectors were consulted to harmonize what is in their strategic plans with district
priorities and also to view and analyze what the specific sector intends to do in certain district.
District officials were the first contact persons in as far as gathering the district profiles was concerned. This was due to the fact that
these people know the district extensively, they understand the nature of district and the package of their information helped much in
priority set-up.
They also know the past district performances which were built upon to plan for the coming 5years. The officials included Mayor,
vice mayors, Executive Secretary, Director of Planning and other district employees responsible for different tasks.
Provincial officials were also consulted for the guidance and approval of priorities and other documents before submitting them to the
ministry of finance and economic planning.

1.1.3 Consultations with district development partners
Stakeholders are the major development agents of the districts in the coming up of the district development plan, their participation
was very important.
The stakeholders consulted include members of JADF(Joint Action Development Forum) bureau, representative of local and
international NGOs ( Non- Governmental Organizations), representative of Civil Society Organizations(CSOs), Private Sectors
Federation and Business Community. Local populations from Umudugudu to Sectors were also consulted. These are the major
stakeholders in the development of the district



12

1.2 ECONOMIC ACTORS IN THE DISTRICT
The district is envisaged with different stakeholders ranging from government, civil society organizations and NGOs.
The major stakeholder is the government of Rwanda through all its ministries and agencies. They all intervene in the life of the district
through different activities. There are 73 economic players in the district that intervene in different areas. 19 International NGOs, 20
local NGOs and 34 churches .14 international NGOs are operating under social sector especially education and health areas. 5 are
engaged in economic development areas and especially in agricultural development.










Comment [T1]: Is this the total number of non-
government operating within the district?
Comment [T2]: Pleas clarify this, how many are
they in total, how many are in more than one
sector, how are they distributed within the district

CHAPTER TWO: OVERVIEW OF THE DISTRICT
2.DESCRIPTION
The District of Nyagatare is one of the seven districts making up the Eastern Province. The District is divided into 14 Sectors, 106
cells and 630 Villages. It spreads over an area of 1920, 11 Km2, with Uganda at its North, Tanzania at its East, Gatsibo District at
South and Gicumbi District on its West (District monograph 2012)
It is the one of the largest districts in the country with the total population of 466,944(NISR2012 population census results). The
table below shows how the population is distributed across the 14 sectors that made up Nyagatare district.

2.1 TOPOGRAPHICAL MAKE UP
2.1.1 Geographical features
The District of Nyagatare is generally characterized by short hills separated by dry allies for a long period of the year (June- October).
The District is located in the granite with low valley whose average altitude is 1513; 5m (District Monograph 2012)
2.1.2 Climate
The District of Nyagatare experiences small quantity of rains and hot temperatures. According to the district climate survey of 2009,
It is characterized by two main seasons: one long dry season that varies between 3 and 5 months with an annual average temperature
varying between 25,3C et 27,7C. The monthly distribution of the rains varies from one year to another. Annual rain falls are both
very weak (827 mm/an) and very unpredictable to satisfy the needs in agriculture and livestock.



15

2.1.3 Hydrographic Description
The hydrographic network is very limited in the District of Nyagatare. A part from the MuvumbaRiver that cuts across the District,
The Akagera and Umuyanjarivers passing the District constitutingits limits with Tanzania and Uganda respectively, there is no other
big consistent rivers that can be exploited by the population ofNyagatare. The district also has other few and small rivers such as
Nyiragahaya, Kayihenda, Karuruma, Nayagasharara and Kaborogota. These are erratic and intermittent.
The weak river network constitutes a serious handicap to responding to the needs of water for people and animals.
2.1.4 Fauna and Flora
The District of Nyagatare contains a half of Akagera National Park where a vast number of Wild life including buffalo, Antelopes and
more other ruminants are living. The District also accommodates a huge variety of birds such as birds of prey, guinea-fowl, partridges,
heroes and so forth. The hares, Wild boars, monkeys and more other small beasts of the rodent family are rarely found in the wooden
savanna and in the natural vegetation.
This implicates the potentials for tourism and related economic activities to the district.

The Flora in Nyagatare is generally made of afforested savanna vegetation and some forestry gallery. The latter constitutes a very
precious reserve which should be rationally exploited.
2.1.5 Soils
The soil of Nyagatare District is characterized by the tightness of the hum fare layer of the soil brought about by the grassy savanna
and by the verity soils that are rich in nutrients and mineral

2.3 DISTRICT ACHIEVEMENTS AND OUTSTANDING CHALLENGES
This section reflects the achievements the district has registered from the past five years and the outstanding challenges which
generally affect the district basing on the past analysis and census from different sources especially EDPRS1 self-assessment report,
different district and ministerial reports.
The district performed well over the last 5 years, reports from district self-assessment reports show that nearly 90% of just concluding
DDP were achieved.
In agriculture and livestock, the productivity has been increased at the significant level and there is sustainable food security in the
district. Citizens are no longer staved to hunger as in the last decade. 67% of the population in the district is now engaged in extensive
agriculture. The major crops grown are maize, beans, cassava, rice and bananas. Animals transformations have registered significant
value where the long horned cows were replaced by the improved ones with high level of production. 45000 cows were transformed to
modern ones
In infrastructure sector, district roads especially feeder roads which link sectors have been constructed (919 km district road
network) this have facilitated trade and movement of good and people from different corners of the district. Tarmac and stone paved
roads have also been constructed in partnership with district stake holders. Other infrastructures like modern markets have been
constructed and the district has 4 modern markets and one modern taxi parks.
Urbanization and settlements have been improved ranging from eradication of Nyakatsi to improved settlements (imidugudu). The
district was able to design its master plan and now it's at 40% implementation level. 83% of the population lives in planned
settlements (imidugudu) while 3.3% live in the city.
19

Electricity has been extended to rural areas though it's still challenge because the coverage (11% EICV3) is low. The primary fuels
used for cooking are firewood 75.4%, charcoal 7.2%, and crop waste 17.1%.
Water coverage increased significantly with 42.3% access to improved water sources. This is low compared to the national average of
74.2 % (EICV3)
Environmental protections have also been emphasized through forestation where about 10% of the land is covered by trees. Note that
the target for EDPRS2 is to have at least 30% of the land covered by the forests.
In ICT developments, lots have been achieved. Population with Mobile phone 53.3%, Landline phone 0.6%, Computer 0.6%, Radio
69.5%, and TV set 3.4%.
The private investment increased significantly. Rice, maize and milk processing plants were established with the support from
private investment and this boosted the economic development of the district.
In Education sector, the rate of enrolment in schools have increased to 87.1 % in primary schools through its a bit lower compared
to the national average of 91.7%. Secondary school enrolments 18.1%. the completion rate of both secondary and primary schools
increased . The adult literacy programmes were emphasized where about 40,000 adults were trained in writing and reading (District
report on education 2011). The number of secondary schools has increased and 300 classrooms were built for 9YBE programme.
There has been the growing number of tertiary schools and the district has 4 technical and vocational training schools and 2 Higher
learning institutions.
Health levels also improved due to increasing the number of health centersand strengthening Nyagatare hospital. This led to
reduction of chronic diseases like Malaria which was very common in the district from 27% morbidity to 9.6% currently. Mituelle de
sant insurance scheme also contributed to that. Nearly 85% are enrolled in the scheme. The infant mortality rate is at the rate of 47
children per 1000 born, under five year mortality rate 123 which is higher compared to national average of 76. The proportional of

The district is the overall best in all districts in having access to improved sanitation (92% EICV3 REPORT).
Poverty has also been reduced significantly and the poverty level in the district is lower than the national averages as indicated in the
above table. Poverty reduced mainly due to the social protection programmes like VUP UMURENGE with its programmes of DS,
PW and FS, and other poverty reduction strategies like Girinka programme, SMEs development, development of financial services
like SACCO and agricultural and crop intensification programmes (CIP) .

Decentralization and good governance were also promoted with citizen`s participation in governance and decision making
emphasized. All those contribute to the development of the district.






21

In the line with the vision of the district, the table below highlights what remained as the major challenges that need more attention in
the EDPRS2 based on the analysis of district self-assessment reports.
Table 3: major challenges and top five priorities
Based on the district assessment reports, below are the top five challenges the district is facing and the major priorities to address them

2.4 DISTRICT POTENTILS TO BOOST THE DEVELOPMENT
The district has potentials of which if exploited exhaustively can boost its social-economic development. These are summarized as
follows:
A landscape with low altitude: this favors agricultural mechanization and which contributes much to the economic development of the
district
Existence of unexploited land and swamps: these swamps provide extensive areas for agriculture.
Bordering with Uganda: the district is boarded with Uganda at its north. This provides market for the products and services from the
district. It may also act as the trading agents for the district since the vision of the district is to be the commercial hub in the eastern
region.
The presence of the Akagera Park: Akagera attracts many tourists. The tourist resides in the district to which they leave their currency.
This has led to frequent increase in hotel services which provides jobs to many people, boosting their income and hence contributing
to the economic development of the district and the country at large.
The existence of construction material especially granites. This may lead to the industrial development id well exploited

25


3.5 DISTRICT AND SECTOR PRIORITIES
This part presents the overall priorities and actions that will be done in each sector. It also shows how these actions will contribute to
four thematic areas.
3.5.1 Agricultural and livestock sector
Agriculture is one of the most economic activities of our country. According to the EICV3 report, 84.5% of land in Nyagatare district
is used for agriculture and livestock farming.
The district`s main food crops are Maize, Beans, cassava, sweet potatoes, Bananas and sorghum.
Few sectors produce the cash crops for exports like Tea, Coffee and Rice.
Besides growing of crops, the district is well known for cattle rearing and production of milk and meat. This is due to the fact that
people have bigger plots of land compared to other districts.
However the level of productivity have not yet reached the expectation of the district and much has to be done increasing agricultural
production and productivity
In the line with the vision of the district of being commercial hub in the eastern region, agricultural and livestock as the major
economic activities have to be emphasized. Below are the priorities that will be embarked on in the above sector
Increaseagricultural production and productivity. For the district to attain the level of high productivity and production, the
following outputs will be emphasized on:
Comment [T9]: What are they?
26

Land use consolidationIncreased:Land consolidation was seen as the priority which can facilitate the farmers to make good use
of the available land for increased productivity. This will facilitate the district and MINAGRI to avail facilities like fertilizers,
mechanized system and improved seeds. The district has currently consolidated land equivalent to 48080 ha, and is targeting to add
26920 ha in the next five years to make the total of consolidated land 75000ha. The consolidated land will boost the growing of maize,
beans and cassava which are the major food crops in the district. In order to implement this priority, citizens will be encouraged and
sensitized about its advantages.
Agro processing plants increased:With the strategies of agricultural transformation, lot of transformational plants will be
needed. Due to higher use of mechanization, irrigation and consolidation of land, the production is expected to increase and therefore
more plants will be needed to transform that production. In line with the district vision of becoming the commercial city, the plants
which will transform crops like maize, cassava and rice will increase commercial activities and many investors will be attracted to
invest in the district. Currently the district has two agro processing plants (1 for maize and another for rice and they have lower
capacity).

For the next five years, the district will add more four plants to make them six (6) and will be of higher capacity. Lot of factors like
increased number of land under consolidation, use of irrigation systems and the mechanization will necessitate the increasing number
of agro processing plants due to the increased production
Irrigation systems applied:Irrigation has been seen as the best rain substitute. In areas where it has been applied, lots of successes
have been registered. Nyagatare district is characterized by long dry season. This affects farmers in terms of agricultural output. In
order to overcome the above challenge, the district has prioritized to increase the irrigation systems from 3280 ha under the system to
27

6000ha by 2017. This will be done both in hillside and marshlands. It is important to note at this point that the overall targets of the
government is to have more 27000 ha under irrigation both in marshlands and hillsides.
Post harvesting storage systemsIncreased: In order to achieve the goal of sustainable food security, production will go hand in
hand with storage such that the surplus yields during the harvesting season is kept and used during the sunny seasons when the
production is lower. These facilities will also act as storages of raw materials to feed the number of agro processing plants that will be
increased . For the next five years, the district is planning to move from 23 post harvesting facilities to 40 by 2018. The 17 more will
be placed in different sectors of the district on equal basis.
More marshlandsExploited: In order to increase the production, the district intents to exploit more marshlands that are currently
not exploited. The districts have already solicited the private investor who will develop the marshland but employ the local population.
This will avail more land for production of crops like rice, cabbages, and other crops hence contributing to the increased production.
The marshland will be increased from current 2900ha to 5000ha.
Application of fertilization increased: in the bid to increase the quality of agricultural output, the use of fertilization will play
important role. Currently the use of fertilization in the farmers is at the level of 40% and the district will in the next five years
emphasize on increasing the access to fertilizers so that the utilization rate will be 100% as per national target. This will be done
through mass sensitization of farmers to use their own home fertilizers and subsidizing them to get industry made fertilizers.
Mechanization in agricultural increased by increasing the number of tractors from 14 to28. It is important to bear in mind that the
national target as regards to mechanization is to have 465,642 ha mechanized by 2017/18.Agricultural cooperatives will be
strengthened. Nutritional programmes including balanced diet and kitchen garden will also be emphasized

Livestock
The district is well known for the livestock production. It is the largest supplier of milk among other districts.
For the EDPRS2, the district is embarked on the value addition of both cattle and their products.
The priorities that were identified are enclosed in the outcome of increased value of livestock products. For that to be attained, the
following will be done
The number of improved cattleIncreased: In order to increase the milk production, the district is embarked on transforming
cattle from the traditional ones to improved ones. This will be done through inseminations and crossbreeding of 40458 cattle in the
next five years to make the total improved cattle to be 85458. The end result will be increased milk production.
Capacity of MCCs in milk transformationIncreased:As noted earlier, the district is well known for milk production. However,
it has lower transformational capacity. Out of 15 milk collection centers, none has the capacity to transform the milk into another
product like cheese, yourgout or biscuits. In that regard, the district will focus on transforming the milk collection centers by
equipping them with necessary materials and be able to transform some products from milk and other cattle products.
Animal food processing plant Established: Nyagatare is the district that is famous for cattle keeping. Considering the
transformational of those cattle and droughts which at times lead to loss of animal feeds, the district in collaboration with private
investors will establish two animal feeds processing plants to ensure constant supply. The district currently has none.
Construction of valley dams and availing water in the farms: For increasing milk production, there is great need to increase
water supply in farms so as to shorten the journey taken by farmers to search for water. This will lead to more productivity from
cattle.
29

Animal diseases control centre established:Nyagatare as the district with cattle is at times affected by the animal diseases
especially foot and mouth disease. This kills many cows and restrains meat and milk production. As the major sources of living to the
population of this district, the district intends to establish animal disease control center which will follow daily life and conditions of
cattle in the district and establish pre- control measures like animal vaccination.
3.6TRANSPORT SECTOR
Transportation sector is major link between movement of goods and services that constitutes the economic development and exchange
of information
Its the major infrastructure that attracts the investors since it facilitates the inflow and out flow of goods and services. Transportation
sector normally is comprised of road, water and air transport.
Nyagatare as a district that reaches on boarder (kagitumba) experiences many movements both of people and goods. Also as district
with vision of becoming a commercial city, it needs to transform its transport sector to facilitate the movement of goods and services.
To achieve the outcome of having improved transport for rural and urban accessibility, the following will be done
Construction and rehabilitation of both tarmac, stone paved and feeder roads. (28km of tarmac roads, 300km of feeder roads and 10km
of stone paved roads will be constructed). The district will also upgrade and modernize six bridges which will facilitate movement of
goods and services at lower costs. 305km of the total road network will be rehabilitated
Construction of car parks, the district currently has no car park. In the next five years, in partnership with private individuals will
construct 6 car parks.
Comment [T10]: Different from what is on page
17, it says that there is one carpark
30

Construction of roadside station for the inward and outward tractors that deal with cross border trade. This will contribute to
urbanization in the nearby places. The station will be constructed in kagitumba boarder.
3.7ENERGY SECTOR
Energy sector is the important sector in economic transformation. For the industrial development to take place, energy plays an
important role. According to EICV3, The overall distribution of electricity in Nyagatare district is 11% which is almost equal to the
national level of 10.8%. The district also has the higher rate of biomass consumption (98% EICV3 report) which accounts for the
environmental degradation.
Important note have to be taken that, the targets for the government in energy sector for EDPRS2 is, how do we move from 11%
electricity access to 70% access in 2018
How we do reduce biomass usage from 86% to 50 % by 2018, How do we reduce the energy cost of doing business? This implies that
the energy sector need to be further developed in every district so as to spearhead the economic development of the district and also
achieve the above national targets.
In order to achieve the above objectives and goals, the district plans to ensure increased access to electricity from 21.7% (EICV 3) to
70% by 2017/18. To attain this, the district has the following in the plan.
Hydroelectric power plant constructed. One hydro power plant will be constructed and it will serve three sectors
Solar energy plant installed in Nyagatare town. This will supplement the hydro power
Extension of electric lines to catch more rural areas
The district is also characterized by high level of biomass consumption (98% compared to 96% at national level.
31

For the reduction of biomass consumption, the district in the next five years will
Construct 1000 biogas digesters in schools and HHs level and increase use of energy saving stoves (Rondereza), and cook stoves will
be encouraged to be used by the households.
3.8 WATER AND SANITATION
Nyagatare as the arid district has few water sources and accessibility. According to the EICV3 survey, it is ranked the last in all
districts in terms of access to clean water (41% of population use surface water) which is usually unprotected and dirty. Few use the
protected springs (29%) which is far below the national level of 38.1 %.( EICV3 REPORT).
It is important to understand at this point that the vision 2020 targets for water and sanitation sector has been brought forward by the
EDPRS 2 to be achieved at 100% by 2017. This is also the aspiration of the seven years Government program to accelerate
achievement of the water and sanitation sector targets to 100% by 2017.
For the above targets to be achieved, Nyagatare as the ragging behind district in the water and sanitation sector has to put in place
remarkable measures to address the above challenge.
The sector outcome is to have Increased Rural and Urban Access to Clean Water to 100% by 2017/2018. For the district to achieve
the above target, the following is planned
Construction and extension of water pipelines to increase the coverage:
Water treatment plants Constructed. The new water treatment plants will supply 9 sectors with water. New water sources which are
currently not exploited will be exploited in abid to increase water supply. Three new treatment plants will be constructed.
32

Water storage and harvesting facilities improved and emphasized: among the households so that the water stored during the rainy
season can be used during the sunny seasons. This will solve water problem as well as reducing soil erosion
Water also goes hand in hand with sanitation, in the area of sanitation; the district will embark on ensuring improved treatment and
disposal of both liquid and solid wastes. This will be done through the following activities;construction of 3km of water drainage
system in the city of Nyagatare, 1 modern landfill and every sector will have one rubbish pit.
3.9 URBANIZATION SECTOR
Urbanization goes hand in hand with energy sector and infrastructure development. This sector contributes much to the economic
growth and development of a country.
The just concluded EICV3 showed that the district of Nyagatare has fast growing urban areas but still much has to be done because
only 3.3% of population lives in urban areas.
With the vision of becoming the commercial city, the urban development will contribute much to the attainment of this vision. The
sector`s outcome that the district wants to attain is to have Improved Urban and Rural Settlement. In order to have that achieved in the
EDPRS 2 period, the district has prioritised the following;
Speeding up the implementation of Nyagatare town master plan The master plan is already in place what the district will do is to speed
up its implementation from the 40% level now to 100% by 2018. Not only the city of Nyagatare will be developed but also other
incoming cities that surround it.
Construction and equipping model villages: in the line with modern settlement, the district will construct and equip modern villages.
Currently there is one modern village and 13 more will be built to have one in each sector.
33

Encouraging population to settle in urban areas by developing upcoming towns and centers
Increase the number of population in grouped settlements (imidugudu). When people are settled in grouped settlements, its easier for
the government to avail them with necessary infrastructures like water and electricity. The district`s population who now dwell in
imidugudu are equivalent to 83%. The district will increase the percentage to 100% in the next 5 years. This will contribute to the
government target of having 65% of all population in grouped settlement and 35% to be living in cities by 2018.
Construction of modern markets: the growing of cities will go hand in hand with commercial activities that will necessitate the
establishment of modern markets in major trading centers of the district.
Establishment of one stop boarder post: this will facilitate trade and movement of goods and services through speeding the process of
clearance. The post will be constructed at kagitumba boarder
3.10 PRIVATE SECTOR DEVELOPMENT
For any economic growth and development to be achieved, private sector contributes much.
Private investment increases capital inflow, the level of employment and the technical knowhow flow in the country and the district
The district is characterized by a growing number of private investments but still has not reached the maximum. The priorities to be
developed from the private sector in the next five years are
Develop and strengthen manufacturing sector in collaboration with private and public partnership (PPP) this will lead to
establishment of small scale light industries which will boost the development in the district.
Develop art and craft centers commonly known as (Agakiriro) so as to increase off farm jobs especially for youth and promotion of
small and medium enterprises.
34


Increasing the number of hotels. Hotels play important role in tourism development through provision of accommodation facilities to
the tourists and other people. The district has tourism potentials but not fully exploited due to few and non standard accommodation
facilities. The district currently has one hotel in the district and through the district and private investors; the numbers of hotels are
expected to increase to 3. Apart from the hotel and tourism development, the district will attract private investors in the areas of
infrastructure like commercial centers, roads, real estates, industrial development and energy.
3.11 ICT SECTOR
In today`s competitive world, ICT has become more of a necessity than a want. Science and technology, including ICT is one of the
four cross cutting pillars of VISION 2020 that will contribute to the development of the other pillars and the overall goals of the
VISION. At the core of Rwandas development process will be what constitutes Rwandas principal asset: its people. Human
resources will be improved, so that Rwanda can become a knowledge-based economy. For that to be attained, Rwanda will actively
encourage Science and Technology education and ICT skills.
Nyagatare district has got some improvements in as far as ICT is concerned. However much has to be done. According to the EICV3
report, only 0.6% of population own computers which is far below the national level of 1.7%. This implies that the sector needs to be
developed further to achieve the national targets. The sector outcome of Developed capacity building in ICT to fast track the countrys
transformation into a knowledge-based society will be achieved by the following activities.
Strengthening and equipping the district ICT training centers. With this, many people will acquire ICT skills
Increase the level of connectivity by extending the access to fiber optics (all sectors and cells to be connected to internet by 2017. This
will enhance service delivery
35

Increasing citizens access to information by promoting the TV penetrations in local levels where citizens will gather and have access
to information.
Maintaining the content of the district website and ensure its up to date such that people in and outside the district can know what is
happening in the district and can access any information they need to know about it.
ICT encouraged and promoted in primary and secondary schools such that students will grow with ICT skills. This will be done by
distributing ICT equipments in primary and secondary schools.
3.12 ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES SECTOR
Nyagatare district is one of the districts which are characterized by lower forests and with much risk of environmental degradation due
to higher biomass consumption (98% EICV3).
In the EDPRS2, districts of Nyagatare will work to ensure that the environment is properly protected.
Priorities which were brought forward by the district in as far as the sector of environment is concerned are :
Rehabilitating Watershed and enhancing water storage facilities by controlling soil erosion in water catchment areas protecting river
banks (2000 ha of land around rivers in Nyagatare district will be agro forested)
A forestation; More trees will be planted in different areas of the district to increase the forest cover and meet the national target of
having 30% of land covered with forest. To achieve that target, the district intends to plant 5757O ha of land by 2018 and on river
shores (10 m from the river)
In consideration of the targets of the forest sub-sector of increasing the forest cover, districts will measure their success against new
forest planted, targeting a minimum of 20 trees per household in rural area and 5 trees in urban areas with a survival rate of 90%;
36

District contribution of forestry resources to economic growth and poverty reduction will be implemented through District forest
management plan updated and implemented,
Furthermore, districts will focus on the rehabilitation of their ecosystem in order to maintain biological biodiversity and ecological
functions through the Protection and rehabilitation of degraded lakeshores and river banks.
District will also ensure that pollution management and enforce environmental regulation for sustainable development through the
development and implementation plans for relocation of Illegal activities and people that live in the risk zones (49 HHs have been
identified and will be re-allocated)
Ensure Land tenure, administration and land use management
Develop and implement relocation plans of illegal activities from wetlands
Establish environmental committees and clubs. Each sectors and cells will have an environmental committee which has an important
part to play as the first point of contact for any environmental issues.
Reduce water related disaster risks and climate impacts like droughts and floods.
Implement District connection to LAIS.





37

3.13 FINANCIAL SECTOR DEVELOPMENT
Financial sector is another sector that helps much in transformation of the economy. This sector has been growing tremendously over
the past years with influx of banking institutions and other microfinance institutions.
The district of Nyagatare was not left behind; it has both commercial banks (BK, BPR and ECOBANK) and other microfinance
institutions and SACCOs.
According to the EICV3, 39.5% of Nyagatare population only own savings account and the percentage is abit low compared to other
districts. This is due to cultural factors and lack of enough economic activities and infrastructures for financial sector development
The EDPRS2 provided the targets to be achieved in five years in as far as the financial sector is concerned.
How do we transform Rwanda into a financial hub?
Integrating modern financial dimensions like electronic payments
Scaling up Financial inclusion and literacy
For the above to be achieved, districts will play a vital role in facilitating the development of financial sector by increasing awareness
among the population.
The priorities for the sector in the next planning period are:
Strengthening Umurenge Sacco for financial outreach. This will help the local citizens to develop the savings culture to which the
savings will lead to the investment and the investment will lead to wealth accumulation hence breaking the poverty cycles.
38

Citizens will be encouraged to also use other financial services from other banks especially encouraging them to use loans so as to
develop their economic activities. This will be done by the financial information centre which will be established at the district.
3.14 YOUTH SECTOR
For any economic growth and development of any country, youth play an important role.
According to the Rwandan constitution, a person is classified as youth if he /she are in the range of 14-35 years of maturity. The youth
is the working population and therefore contribute much to the economic development.
Nyagatare district is characterized by a big percentage of youth (According to District report, over 64 % of population in Nyagatare
district are between 16-35 years) which assures a big workforce(District report) . The major challenge however, is that the big number
is unskilled hence their contribution to the development of the district is still low.
Its important at this juncture to note that the vision 2020 target for youth is 200,000 jobs - to be generated annually by the Youth
sector. This requires much effort especially in empowering youth to be creative and develop entrepreneurial spirit by facilitating them
to acquire necessary skills and facilities to financial means. The district wants to achieve the outcome of increase youth employment
and empowerment and youth productivity. This will be delivered by the following planned activities.
Establishing more YEGO centers and youth cooperatives encouraged and supported. This will avail youth more entrepreneurship
skills hence employment opportunities.
Also youth will be encouraged to undertake TVET schools to increase their skills base.

3.15 SOCIAL PROTECTION SECTOR
The government of Rwanda initiated many social protection programs. Examples are Community health program (mituelle de sant),
VUP, Ubudehe and others.
In the past five years, poverty in Rwanda has reduced by twelve percentage points from 57% to 45% and extreme poverty from 36%
to 24% (EICV3).
Data from the EDPRS1 flagship social protection programme, VUP, demonstrates how the social protection sector has contributed to
this remarkable achievement.
In particular, social protection has helped to reduce the proportion of the population categorized as Ubudehe 1 (the poorest) in VUP
sectors and to increase the livestock holdings and durable assets of extremely poor beneficiary households.
Nyagatare district also was not left behind in the social protection policies. Results from EICV3 indicate that the population who are
classifies as poor in the district range from 37.4% which is promising compared to the national level of 45% and other districts. The
overall participation in community health is above 90% and extreme poverty is at the rate of 19.1%. Compared to 24.1% at national
level(EICV3 REPORT). The sector outcome is to have equitable access to social protection systems and coverage to all vulnerable
families.
The district has prioritised the activities which will help people graduate from extreme poverty. This will be achieved through the
following sub programmes.
Increase social protection coverage of extremely poor households. In addition to increased resources, improved coverage of the
extreme poor (and of all vulnerable and socially excluded groups within the extreme poor) requires effective targeting and programme
40

design. Nyagatare district has to ensure that more extreme households living within the district are covered under the social protection
program

Increase the coverage of social protection public works programmes to reach more large households with many children.

Expand the VUP public works approach to other programmes. The social protection sector will encourage other public works and
infrastructure programmes to use its targeting approach, based on Ubudhehe categorization, to select beneficiaries. In this way, more
of the poorest families will be able to access public works employment, including in feeder roads construction in rural-urban settings.
Expand the Girinka programme to reach many poor families there by raising their income base.
3.16 HEALTH SECTOR
Health is at the back born of the district. According to the DHS4, challenges identified in the district are few health facilities (One
health center covers an average of more than 50,000 inhabitants (standard = 20,000), Lack of enough skilled personnel in the health
facilities, lack of enough hospitals (the district only has one hospital) and insufficient medical equipments in the health facilities.
In the next planning period, the district aims at the following priorities in the health sector.
The district is aiming at improved health care delivery system for sustainable health and this will be achieved through the following:
Construction and equipment of more health centers, hospital and health posts to increase the health coverage and ensuring that the
health centers are distributed evenly across all the sectors. (1 hospital, 3 health centers and 27 health posts will be constructed and
equipped.
Extension of Nyagatare district hospital. This is the existing hospital. It will be extended to increase its capacity in accommodating
more patients and also equipping it with modern health materials.
41

Reducing infant and under five years mortality rates: the infant and under five mortality rate is currently at the level of 80/1000 and
123/1000 respectively which is higher than the national average of 50 and 70 respectively. This will be done by increasing the number
of births attended by qualifies personnel/ nurses such that it would be 20 and 30 respectively by 2017.
Reducing malaria morbidity rate from 9.2% to at least 1%: Malaria is the common disease in the district which claims many lives.
Currently the morbidity rate is at the level of 9.2% with 6% being children and women (District Hospital Health indicators 2011). In
the bid to reduce this morbidity the districts have prioritized strategies like increasing the health care facilities, mosquito net
distribution among all pregnant women, increasing the level of health insurance coverage (mituelle de sant) such that no person
cannot fail to afford medical facilities.
Reducing fertility rate by Encouraging women and men to use contraceptives for family planning. The family planning method is
currently at the level of 46% in the district and it is expected to increase to 70% by 2018.
Promotion of balanced diet and good feeding to control malnutrition
Capacity building of Doctors and nurses to increase the level of qualification: The level of health care delivery cannot increase if the
health and medical officials are not well equipped with skills to deliver the facilities. Therefore the district with the support from
MINISANTE will train and recruit nurses and doctors in order to increase the health care services.
Health awareness to prevent non- communicable diseases emphasized
Strengthened E-Health systems for proper record keeping and inventory management


42

3.17 EDUCATION SECTOR
The district has improved tremendously in education sector. According to EICV3 the net enrolment in primary school is at the rate of
87.1 %and 70% in secondary schools the overall enrolment rate in primary school is however slightly lower compared to the national
average of 91%. The sector of education needs to be emphasized. Extracts from the education sector strategic show the following
priorities.
Promoting access to 12-years of schooling, including in the TVET stream:Following on the commitment to nine years free basic
education, the consolidation of and further extension to this commitment clearly constitutes the governments top policy priority for
the next five-year period and also scaling up upper secondary to achieve the target of 12YBE schooling.
Improving the quality of education provision: the scaling up of education programmes will go hand in hand with improving the
quality of education. This will involve culliculum revision, teacher training in language proficiency and school management.
Strengthening the relevance of education: The sector is essentially concerned about the degree of fit between the various outputs of
the education system and the labor-market on the one hand, and the needs of the economy and society more broadly on the other hand.
This is a matter of critical importance, both for general and academically oriented education at secondary and higher education levels,
but more acutely for demand-driven TVET and related career and vocationally-oriented education and training.
Considering the above top priorities, the district has identified the following priorities to respond to the above goals.
Equitable access to compulsory primary and lower secondary schooling for all children, and expanding access to upper secondary
and technical and vocational schools. . For this outcome to be reached, the following will be done.
More Class RoomsConstructed:The district has a growing number of populations. This means that more schools will be needed to
accommodate the growing number. Currently the district has 435 rooms for both lower and upper secondary schools and it intends to
43

increase them to 735 classrooms by 2018. The rooms will be fully equipped with school materials and with lightening conductors to
prevent lightening.
More TVETsEstablish and equipped: Rwanda is aimed at becoming the knowledge based economy, for that to be achieved; it has
developed the system of education which is focused on the needs of the market and the education that will facilitate Rwandans to
become self-employed than job seekers. The number of TVETs will be increased from 4 to 8 schools.
Schools of disabled people increased. This will lead to their economic empowerment. The schools will be increased from 2 to 4. This
is in the line of with the government efforts to promote the disabled people. Efforts will be made to consolidate the disabled education
into existing education systems.
Number of ECDCs (early childhood development centers) increased. This will facilitate the children as regards to early development
and preparation for their primary schooling. The number will increase from 47 today to 75 by 2018.
Outcome2:A sufficient number of qualified, suitably skilled and motivated teachers and trainers to meet expanding education access.

In order to improve the quality of teaching systems, the following are planned
Capacity building of all teachers of different levels emphasized: quality of education cannot be achieved if the deliverers of the
knowledge are not well trained and capable. According to District Education Report (June 2012,) only 75% of teachers are qualified
compared to 80% national wide. So the district will train all the teachers and even recruit new qualified ones to make education more
valuable and achieve the government target of having 100% qualified teachers at all levels of education.
Construction of teachers hostels in all schools: Hostels to accommodate teachers will be constructed in bid to increase their morale
and motivation .this will be done through community works(umuganda)
44

Strengthening teachers cooperatives by supporting them so that they can diversify their income.
3.18 DECENTRALIZATION SECTOR
One of the Vision 2020s pillars is good governance and a capable state. Through this pillar, the Government of Rwanda reiterates its
commitment to ensuring accountability, transparency, effective and efficiency in deploying resources and delivering services. Central
to this; is peoples empowerment and participation through the decentralization process whereby local communities are empowered to
participate in decisions making process over the issues that mostly affect them. This process of decentralisation has been very useful
in enhancing good governance in our country.
Note that the revised targets for decentralization sector for EDPRS2 and vision 2020 was set as below
Women representation in decision making organs (40% from 30% today)
Citizens satisfaction with service-delivery (80% from 66% today)
Rule of law (80% from 66.7% today)
In Nyagatare, the Citizen`s complaints are resolved through the community assemblies in the Villages, Cells and through meeting of
the sectors leaders which embraces a high level of decentralization. . The Rwanda Government program 2010-2017, has set a target
of service delivery satisfaction at 80%. Through nationwide sensitization and campaigns
To achieve the above target, the district will strengthen greater collaboration with the citizens.
This will be done through different strategies to get feedback from the citizen. One of them is a suggestion/complain box that is
installed at the district offices where citizens can drop their complains.
45

The sector outcome is to have increased efficiency and effectiveness in service delivery by Local Governments. To get to that, the
district will embark on the following priorities in the sector for the next five years

Equipping all offices of cells with necessary materials to enable in the process of delivery.
Increase the citizen participation in decision making process by sensitizations and campaigns
Increase the level of Service delivery. Its more meaningful when the population has an opportunity to provide feedback on the quality
and timeliness of the services delivered. Note the district is currently at the level of 70% in service delivery which is higher compared
to 66% at national level. The level is expected to increase to 80% due to capacity building plans that are expected to be conducted in
the whole district. Through ICT development, the service delivery will also improve.
3.19Justice Reconciliation Law and Order (JRLO) Sector
The JRLOS purpose of strengthening the rule of law to promote accountable governance, a culture of peace, and enhanced poverty
reduction contributes to the overarching EDPRS II goals.
JRLOS builds on five outcomes, namely
Sector capacity and coordination enhanced, Universal access to quality justice strengthened, Impunity for international crimes and
genocide ideology effectively combated; truth-telling and reconciliation strengthened, Rule of law, accountability and
competitiveness promoted and finally Safety, law and order maintained, and adherence to human rights enhanced.
Nyagatare district will embark on prevention of crime rates which are generally domestic in nature
46

Capacity building on Crime prevention through training of Community policing personnel, LDF and reserve forces. These are people
who are normally at terrain and understand what takes place at the village level where such crimes are always committed.
3.20 Public Finance Management (PFM) SECTOR
This is the emerging sector but sensitive. PFM is the tool of achieving any development because if the public funds are not well
managed, the end will be that its misused and the intended objectives are not achieved.
Rwanda as a country with few resources needs to conceptualize this phenomenon well because if it does not put more emphasis in the
management, the even few resources will be of no use hence difficult to achieve economic and social development.
The district of Nyagatare has embarked on zero tolerance on any mis management of public funds but still there are some challenges
which are basically poor skills in financial management.
The major objective of the sector is to have clean audit reports in public institutions. For the above objective to be achieved, the
priorities for the next five years in the sector are
Training all the accountants in schools, sectors, health centers and hospital in public finance management skills especially on the
programme of integrated financial management systems (IFMS). This will go hand in hand with recruitment of qualified new ones.

3.21 CONTRIBUTION OF DISTRICT AND SECTOR PRIORITIES TO THE THEMATIC AREAS
This part shows how the Nyagatare Development Plan contributes to the EDPRS2 Thematic Areas which are economic
transformation, rural development, accountable governance and productivity and youth employment.
3.21.1 Contribution to Economic Transformation Thematic Area
To achieve the target of becoming low middle-income country status by 2020, Rwanda needs to grow by at least 11.5% p.a.
This requirestomove from agrarian economy towards industry and services based economy. In other words economic transformation
will be needed to achieve the above target.
Nyagatare district is the key district which has much potential for economic transformation for not only its self but also the whole
province and the country at large. This DDP encompasates element which will contribute to economic transformation and achieve a
growth rate of 11.5% pa. The following areas captured in DDP will impact economic transformation
District Projects and actions like industrial development, infrastructure, agricultural and dairydevelopment, rural electrification and
improved road networks will all contribute to the economic transformation in the district.





48

3.21.2 Contribution to Rural Development Thematic Area
Rural development refers to the process of improving the quality of life and economic wellbeing of people living in rural areas.
The sector priorities identified in this DDP will contribute to the development of rural areas.
Note have to be taken that the primary objectives of rural development is that rural poverty is significantly reduced in all Districts,
proceeds of growth are equitable distributed and economic transformation occurs within the rural population.
The priorities identified in this DDP will contribute to the rural development. The social sector`s projects like extension of public
works, direct support,the extension of electricity to rural areas, feeder roads construction and rehabilitation, marshland development
and increasing water coverage in rural areas to mention but few. All the above will contribute to the rural development.
3.21.3 Contribution to Accountable Governance Thematic Area
Accountable Governance refers to the mechanisms by which citizens and groups define their interests, interacts with institutions of
authority and with each other. It is how people relate with their leaders in determining their destiny and the way leaders become
accountable to their stakeholders for development.Issues like Citizen Participation in decision making, public accountability days, one
stop service centres will contribute to the accountability and good governance.





49

3.21.4 Contribution to Productivity and Youth Employment Thematic Area
This development plan will contribute to productivity and youth employment through different areas which was highlighted in this
DDP. By increasing the access and the number of TVETs, the district will beenhancing the skills of the youth in some jobs that require
some basic skills. The TVETs will provide skills and the district will get more electricians,plumbers, carpenters, welders, painters etc.
Once the youth acquire such skills, it enhances their chances of increasing productivity and opportunities of being employed by the
private sectorOther areas like agricultural development and private sector will contribute to youth employmentYoung people benefit

3.22 MEANSTREAMING CROSS CUTTING ISSUES INTO PLANNING FRAMEWORK

EDPRS2 is based on several cross cutting issues. They include Environment and climate change, Regional integration, Gender, HIV
Aids and non-communicable diseases, Disability and social inclusion, Capacity building and Metrological and Disaster management.
They all have different contribution to the development of the district if they are envisaged well in the district priorities.
Table 4:Mainstreaming cross cutting issues into 2013-18 planning framework
Comment [T12]: Repetition: same thing

Cross cutting issue How it was incorporated in district priorities
GENDER & FAMILY


-Promote women participation in decision-
making through sensitization and training.
-Train NGOs/CBOs and local leaders on GBV
prevention. Conduct sensitization to gender
equality and gender related laws.
- strengthening women and men`s cooperatives
and access to finance
- Participation of women in large capital
projects like road construction by making it
known to companies that they will employ at
least 36% of women.

ENVIRONMENT, CLIMATECHANGE
AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT
-Develop alternative energy sources like use of
biogas and stoves and other low energy saving
systems to reduce pressure on use of biomass.
- risk mitigation by re-allocating people in risk
zones
Utilization lightening conductors on all
buildings. All these are meant to reduce
environmental degradation
51

CAPACITY BUILDING - Build staff capacity in management and
leadership skills
- Employees will be trained in their respective
areas of specialization to increase their
capacity and performance.
- Capacity development will be also offered in
technical skills and ICT
HIV/AIDS AND NON-COMMUNICABLE
DISEASES
- Reduce new HIV/AIDS infections by
sensitization on behavior change and use of
condom for prevention and protection.
- HIV/AIDS campaigns will be conducted on the
large projects where many people meet. Funds
equivalent to 1% of the project will be
allocated for that
- Hygiene clubs will be initiated at cell and
sector level to sensitize the mass population on
the dangers of non-communicable disease.
REGIONAL INTEGRATION - Bordering with Uganda and Tanzania
provides market for agricultural and livestock
products and other services from the district.
The district will produce products to export in
52

the region.
- In line with its vision, it will also act as the
distribution service center where goods from
other districts will be warehoused before they
are exported to Uganda and Tanzania. One stop
boarder post which is planned under this DDP
will easy the movement and the cost of doing
business to the district and the country at large

DISABILITY AND SOCIAL INCLUSION - People with disabilities will be assisted to
generate income through supporting their
projects.
- All public and private buildings will have
facilities for disabled people
- Schools of people with disabilities have been
put into priorities and will be constructed to
enable them attend schools.

CHAPTER FOUR: IMPLEMENTATION OF DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT PLANs
Different actors will play different roles for this DDP to be successfully implemented. Theyinclude but not limited to ministries,
Province, District council, private sector, NGO`s civil society organisations and the community at large.
4 THE ROLE OF INSTITUTIONS IN IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS DDP

4.1District Management
Nyagatare district has the overall responsibility in the implementation of the development plan. It is responsibility ofcoordinating,
monitoring and evaluating the implementation of all activities and programmesdesigned in this DDP.
4.2 OTHER IMPLEMENTORS (DISTRICT ACTORS AND THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES)
The implementation of Nyagatare development plan will be coordinated and implemented by different district stakeholders starting
from all ministries especially MINECOFIN and other different stakeholders. All will play different roles as elaborated below
4.2.1 Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (MINECOFIN)
MINECOFIN will assist in the implementation of the district development plan and ensure that the priorities within the DDP are in
line with Sector priorities to ensure harmonization of activities. MINECOFIN will also be coming in to financing or funding the
projects initiated in the district.

54


4.2.2 Ministry of Local Government (MINALOC)
MINALOC will particularly play a key role in ensuring that the development plan integrates the key objectives of decentralized
development and community development programmes. It will play crucial role in coordination of district programmes that have
direct effect to the well being of population like VUP, one cow per poor family and service delivery at large. This ministry will also
advocate for district priorities to be considered at the national level.
4.2.3 Ministry of Infrastructures (MININFRA)
MININFRA will help in the implementation of this DDP by facilitating lot of policies regarding to Road infrastructure development,
energy infrastructure, water, urban planning,and urban settlement. All these will have significant contribution to the development and
economic transformation of the district.
4.2.4 Ministry of Health (MINISANTE)
The Ministry has formulated Health Sector Strategic Plan and all health related issues in this DDP are in line with the strategy of the
ministry. The ministry will just evaluate the implementation of those district priorities and give its technical and financial support for easy
implementation by the district.
4.2.5 MINIRENA (MINISTRY OF NATURAL RESOURCES)
This is the Ministry responsible for ENR policy formulation, coordination and implementation. It is responsible for
Ensuring that sustainable natural resources and environmental management principles are mainstreamed in all policies and programmes;
55

Programming, Information and Communication for better utilization and development of natural resources and
environment;implementation of environmental policy .REMA will help the district to implement the priorities related to environment
by building capacity in environmental issues.
Nyagatare district has prioritized many projects like landfill, power plants, marshland development etc. These projects require
environmental certification from MINERENA
4.2.6 MINIJUST (MINISTRY OF JUSTICE)
MINIJUST will help to implement this DDP especially in the areas of Justice, law, reconciliation and order by providing technical
guidelines and laws initiation. It will also help in justice and law enforcement by building the capacity of judges in the district.
In belief, all ministries and agencies will participate in the implementation of this DDP through different activities of their
specialization
4.2.7 Civil Society Organizations (NGOs, CBOs)
Civil society organizations will be mobilized and supported to design specific action plans and activities to implement the programmes
and sub-programmes within their areas of operation. Where capacity gaps are identified, interventions will be undertaken for key
identified CSOs to facilitate them to develop such needed skills, institutional support and logistical resources for the implementation of
specific actions of this plan. More importantly, CBOs, informal associations and other grassroots based CSOs are expected to support
the implementation of the community driven development activities. As part of the DDP sector coordination enhancement, detailed
mapping of CSO operations will be undertaken, needs assessed/ identified, and strategies to support them implemented at all levels.


56

4.2.8 Private sector institutions
In accordance with the GoRs policy of private sector-driven economic development and indeed as highlighted within the EDPRS2, the
private sector has critical roles to play in the implementation of the DDP. Private sector agencies will be mobilized and sensitized,
through the Private Sector Federation (PSF). In the line with district vision, private investors will be encouraged to invest in industrial
development, education sector, urbanization and health sectors
4.2.9 Donors and other Development Partners
Beyond providing financial support to the district, development partners (donors, international and local NGOs) are expected to participate
very actively in the implementation of this DDP.As a part of the refined focus and support to the implementation of the EDPRS2, the
implementation of the Nyagatare development plan will attract many partners especially NGO`s that operate in the district. They will
actively participate in funding and development of their areas of specialization and many of the district priorities will be implemented
by them.






Comment [T13]: Why only these, what are the
selection criteria
57

4.3 CHALLENGES WHICH MAY RISE DURING IMPLEMENTATION AND WAYS OF
OVERCOMING THEM
At times, during the implementation stage, constraints may rise. these would be mainly due to the improper planning or miss
communication and redundancy on one`s responsibilities.
Challenges which may hinder the implementation of this development plan may come from within the location of the district or
outside. In other words, they may be internal or external. Some of the challenges are elaborated below
Financial challenge may arise especially from the failure of the funders and other players. This would hinder the implementation of
the set priorities maximally. In order to overcome this challenge, the district should apply the principle of contingency budget and try
to increase the internally generated revenues so as to be able to fund most of its development projects.
Inflation is also another challenge which may hinder implementation of DDP. Inflation refers to the general rising of the price levels in
the economy. This devalues the currency where too much money purchases few goods. In case inflation occurs during the
implementation, some priorities would be left unachieved due to lack of funds a result of inflation which led to variances between the
amounts planned to spend and the actual amount spent.
Miscommunication of each stakeholders roles is another challenge that the implementation of DDP may face. In order to avoid it,
every individual should be clearly informed about his/her responsibilities and should make some commitment to fulfill it.
Weaker internal control systems may also lead to failure to implement the DDP priorities when there is no strong mechanism for
controlling and coordinating the staff. There should be strong internal controls so as to assign duties and know who is responsible for
certain action.
58

CHAPTER FIVE: MONITORING AND EVALUATION OF DDP
5.INTRODUCTION
In order to ensure the smooth running of any activity, Monitoring and Evaluation needs to be made at different levels. The purpose
of Monitoring and evaluation is to ensure sustainability of initiated projects so as to provide early warning indicators of deviation in the
implementation procedures.
In order to measure the implementation of the priorities as envisaged in chapter three, proper monitoring and evaluation by different
stakeholders will be necessary.
It is therefore of important for the district to monitor and evaluate at the District level, sector and cell levels the implementation of
DDP to see whether the implementation is being done accordingly and whether the proposed yearly targets are being met.
Annual action plans will be put in place to facilitate the monitoring and evaluation of the Development Plan. Quarterly and monthly
report on each activity shall be prepared by the district and submitted to line ministries.
The head of each unit will also draft quarterly activity reports to be copied to the District management.
Quarterly JADF meetings with the district council will carry out an evaluation of the progress of the district activities and also the
exercise will be carried out at the end of each fiscal year.
During the period, line ministries especially MINALOC will also be going down to the district to see how far things are being put into
actions. They will make their recommendations and rankings to which the district will have time to explain what is really happening.
Comment [T14]: On next page
59

The evaluation team will refer to the monitoring and evaluation sheet that is provided by the ministry of local government in
conjunction with Ministry of finance and economic planning. As earlier discussed, Nyagatare district is envisaged with different
actors who are involved in different economic and social sectors. Every actor will ensure that activities in the area of its
concern are moving smoothly
Given the Nyagatare District overwhelming efforts and remarkable skills and the good collaboration between them and the
development partners, we hope that this DDP will be implemented easily.
However, some hindrances may affect the DDP monitoring and evaluation process, they include insufficient equipments
especially in sectors and cells which still lack basic equipments. Also the capacity may be limited hence inconsistence
monitoring process. This will call for more capacity building on the monitoring and evaluation concept

CHAPTER SIX: COSTING AND RESOURCE MOBILIZATION
This chapter presents the costs that will be needed to execute the district and sector priorities for the EDPRS2. It shows the amount of
money that will be needed each financial year to accomplish the priorities and actions set in that particular year.
Resources to execute DDP actions will be mobilized from Government block grants, district own revenues, Development paterners
and other private sources.
The table below summaries the costs that will be needed for the implementation of this development plan.

For the all district and sector priorities to be well executed and the targets set met, the above amount of FRW will be needed.
From the table, economic sectors of water and sanitation, energy, transport, agriculture, environment and natural resources will take
the highest share. This will contribute to the economic transformation. Education and health will carry big percentage of the cost in
social sectors.
These projects will be primarily financed by the government grants and projected district own taxes as follows

In order to fill the deficit gap, resources will be mobilized from the development parterners, donors and other sources that the district
will get. The projected districts ownrevenues and government grants may increase further which may also decrease the deficit gap.
The deficit is urge, how much do we expect from private investors, what is the resource mobilizationstrategy?
As secondary city, the district shouldnt rely on central government funding, better to create a good business environment and expect more revenues from local sources.
