    In Africa, land has an emotional and mystical value beyond the economic consideration and
    represents the social security and the continuity and independence of a family. In much of rural
    Africa, land constitutes the primary source from which millions of people derive their daily
    livelihoods (Bhandari 2001)

    . In sub-Saharan Africa, women contribute between 60-80% of labor
    used to produce food for both household consumption and sale to agricultural production while
    women’s access to and control over land in Africa remains minimal (FAO, 1998).

    The Land Use Consolidation Act (LUC) was introduced in 2008 and is an important
    component of agricultural policy in Rwanda. As part of the Government of Rwanda’s
    broader Crop Intensification Program (CIP), LUC entails participating farmers
    consolidating aspects of their operations with neighboring farmers, while retaining
    individual ownership of their parcels. LUC farmers also agree to grow a single priority
    crop that has been identified by the Ministry of Agriculture (MINAGRI) as best suited to

    Rwanda is developing at a remarkably rapid pace, and with that development has come a
    multitude of corresponding changes to the orientation and use of land throughout the country.
    In light of these changes, law n°18/2007 of 19/04/2007 relating to expropriation in the public
    interest was adopted to provide clear procedures for the government to follow in the taking of
    privately-owned land for other uses deemed to be in the public interest.
    This law provides procedures for notice to affected landowners, the determination of public

    Across equatorial and east Africa, climate change is affecting the frequency, intensity
    and variability of regional climate patterns.1 Changes in rainfall patterns, temperatures
    and storm intensity are having significant effects on national economies, regional
    infrastructure, land use and local livelihoods. These changes are forcing national and
    local governments to adjust and adapt how they plan, prepare and implement day to
    day operations today and larger visions for the future. The ability of governmental

    The aim of this policy brief is to describe current and historical conflicts over rights to land and natural resources within and surrounding protected areas in Rwanda. We examine the roots of contested claims between citizens and the State and offer some potential avenues for resolving these conflicts in ways that consider both the priorities of the Government of Rwanda and the rights of local communities that depend on protected area resources.

The brief elaborates on the legal framework and procedures guiding expropriation and on reported practice based on information gathered from primary and secondary sources. It then proposes measures that would potentially strengthen implementation of expropriation exercises countrywide.

    Rwanda has nearly 280,000 hectares of wetlands, almost 11% of the country’s total
    area.1 These wetlands provide critical habitats for wildlife and biodiversity, maintain
    important hydrologic processes that help to clean and protect ground and surface
    water, support a variety of local livelihoods and largely define Rwanda’s idyllic
    undulating topography.
    2 Despite their ecological and economic importance, Rwanda’s
    wetlands are being degraded and lost faster than any other ecosystem, with
