More voices at Rwanda 2009 national dialogue

Rwanda’s 7th Annual National Dialogue at which citizens from all walks of life challenged their leaders on the issues that affect their lives closed in Kigali on December 11.

The unique democratic process, mandated by Rwanda’s constitution and known as Umushyikirano in Kinyarwanda, the national language, saw hundreds of Rwandans representing all levels of society gathering in the Parliament chamber to debate the future direction of the country and to hold their leaders to account. Over 700 participants at the dialogue, which is broadcast live on television and radio, included all branches of government, district mayors and grassroots leaders, heads of agencies, members of the Rwandan Diaspora, media, diplomats and development partners.
