Ownership of the EDPRS by a wide range of stakeholders at national level has been a key factor of success. The EDPRS 2 has integrated inclusiveness and sustainability as driving factors in elaborating the strategy. Community-based solutions, working closely with the population, have made possible fast-track and cost-effective implementation and increased demand for accountability, in education with the 9YBE construction of classrooms, the Crop Intensification Program in agriculture, and community-based health care programs.IMF Staff Country Reports; Country Report ;No. 2013/360PovertyRwandaMacroeconomicsimfAgribusinessimfDemographyimfPoverty and HomelessnessimfEducation: GeneralimfLabor Economics: GeneralimfWelfare, Well-Being, and Poverty: GeneralimfDemographic Economics: GeneralimfAgriculture: GeneralimfEducationimfLabourimfincome economicsimfPoverty & precarityimfPopulation & demographyimfAgricultural economicsimfLaborimfPovertyimfPopulation and demographicsimfAgricultural sectorimfEconomic sectorsimfLabor economicsimfPopulationimfAgricultural industriesimfRwandaimfPovertyMacroeconomicsAgribusinessDemographyPoverty and HomelessnessEducation: GeneralLabor Economics: GeneralWelfare, Well-Being, and Poverty: GeneralDemographic Economics: GeneralAgriculture: GeneralEducationLabourincome economicsPoverty & precarityPopulation & demographyAgricultural economicsLaborPovertyPopulation and demographicsAgricultural sectorEconomic sectorsLabor economicsPopulationAgricultural industriesDcWaIMFBOOK9910789034803321Rwanda225400UNINA
