Rwanda is experiencing economic growth and is performing well on its SDG goals. Due to the conflict in the neighboring countries, Rwanda hosts about 163,000 refugees, mostly mostly from Burundi and DRC, in six camps and urban areas. The largest camp in Rwanda, Mahama Refugee camp in Kirehe District, hosts 51,000 Burundian refugees. Continuing conflict in those countries could force more people seek refuge in Rwanda and other countries in the Great Lakes region. UNFPA is actively coordinating gender-based violence discussions in the protection cluster in Rwanda.
Results data are reported and updated as they become available.
- Targets and UNFPA's populations of concern, including women of reproductive age and pregnant women, are estimated using the MISP calculator.
- Funding estimates are based on country planning processes, including inter-agency humanitarian response plans and regional refugee and resilience plans.
L1: Humanitarian crises in which the national and international resources available in the affected country are sufficient for the required response.
L2: Humanitarian crises requiring significant support from neighbouring countries, regional organizations and possibly humanitarian agency headquarters.
L3: Major, sudden-onset humanitarian crises requiring mobilization across the humanitarian system.
Crisis levels are determined by the Inter-Agency Standing Committee, a forum of UN and non-UN humanitarian partners.
