Enhancing Public Finance Management skills in Rwanda: a strategic training initiative for senior officials

  • Enhancing Public Financial Management skills in Rwanda: a strategic training initiative for senior officials

Enabel, in collaboration with the Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (MINECOFIN), on January 15th, 2025 organised a strategic training session on PFM aimed at strengthening the Public Financial Management (PFM) capacity of senior officials. This strategic training focused on major ongoing PFM reforms and systems which are currently implemented by the Government of Rwanda such as Performance-based Budgeting and International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS).

The training brought together 31 participants, including project managers and thematic experts from Enabel, representatives of the Embassy of Belgium in Rwanda, and several development partners who have recently joined the PFM Technical Working Group.

The session offered in-depth insights into various aspects of Rwanda’s PFM landscape as well as essential updates on the key elements of the newly adopted PFM SSP 2024-2029 which is central to accelerating Rwanda’s socioeconomic transformation through effective fiscal policy and accountable public.

The session was not just informative but also participatory, featuring presentations by experts from MINECOFIN and hands-on discussions on enhancing PFM sector coordination, accountability, and ensuring smooth implementation of grants in key sectors like Health, Agriculture, and Urbanisation.

The success of this training reflects the necessity of continuous collaborative efforts of both national and development partners to foster a deeper understanding of Rwanda's PFM systems and reforms to ensure that all PFM players contribute effectively to the goals set under the Second National Strategy for Transformation (NST 2).
