The Ministry of Natural Resources (MINIRENA) has introduced reforms meant to improve the role of stakeholders in planning and implementation of environmental conservation activities.
The reforms will enhance close coordination between government and stakeholders with an aim to facilitate decentralization of the projects.
According to MINIRENA permanent Secretary Caroline Kayonga, the ministry is working on a strategy that aims to involve stakeholders’ role in various activities such as the integration of environmental and natural resources program.
“We have to avoid duplication of efforts from partners and we also need to inspect if the stakeholders especially NGO’s are full filling their objectives,” remarked Janvier Ntalindwa, a program officer with the Environment and Natural Resources (ENR).
Chrysostom Sayine from Rwanda Environmental Conservation Organization (RECO) hoped that the dialogue would enhance capacity building among members as well as advocate for more funds to conclude some of the hanging projects.
