The 7th Annual Economic Policy Research Network Rwanda Conference provides a forum for policymakers, academics, international organisations and development partners to discuss the social and economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on Rwanda and suggest specific short, medium, and long-term recommendations to recover from the crisis. Due to the challenge presented by the pandemic, the meeting is being held in a hybrid format, whereby a limited number of participants are in a conference room in Kigali and the rest online. In addition to examining the impact of the pandemic on the economy of Rwanda, the conference also features presentations on: poverty; Government policy responses; gender; the role of digital solutions in economic resilience and growth; and the challenges and opportunities of moving to online learning in higher learning institutions in Rwanda.
