What the grant funds
The U.S. Embassy in Kigali announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a program to improve expropriation and compensation processes and practices by engaging the Rwandan government institutions involved in expropriation, increasing citizens’ understanding of their rights in cases of expropriation, and establishing a mechanism to assist poor citizens to challenge land valuations in cases of expropriation. The goal of the project is to empower citizens to advocate for their individual land rights related to expropriation and advocate for broader policy and procedural changes as needed.
