{President Paul Kagame will today speak to Abunzi (Community mediators) as they celebrate 10 years of cost effective mediation and justice, IGIHE reports}
The Abunzi or Mediation Committee is an organ meant for providing a framework for mandatory mediation prior to filing cases in courts hearing at first instance.
The Abunzi model has cut the number of cases filed in courts and ultimately reduced backlogs.
Before the introduction of mediation committees, any form of misunderstanding ended up in courts.
Records indicate that 80 per cent of Rwandans are happy with the work done by the Abunzi
