Rural Small and Micro-enterprise Promotion Project
Rural Small and Microenterprise Promotion Project
This pilot project was intended to:
- put in place a sustainable framework for increasing productivity, profitability and competitiveness among microenterprises managed by the rural poor
- improve access to training in management and technology
- improve the macroeconomic and regulatory framework
- develop linkages between the Government and private-sector producers
The project contributed to strengthening more than 4,000 existing rural small and microenterprises and fostering new initiatives. The lessons learned from this experience, which served as a basis for designing Phase II, can be summarized as follows:
- all groups, particularly the most vulnerable, must be taken into account in designing projects for rural areas
- it is important to balance job creation with developing agricultural production, which complement each other
- one of the conditions for the success of development activities is community involvement in making decisions and identifying needs
- training beneficiaries gives good results, but must be continued
- production, processing and marketing technologies must be responsive to the needs of entrepreneurs

(i) Targeting and transition to employment or business creation; (ii) Types of training and providers; (iii) Transfer of knowledge and sustainability. The objective of this study is to present the experience of IFAD in technical vocational and skills development in the context of Rwanda and by doing so, highlight the innovative features and lessons learnt for further replication.
