This PE aims to implement a national tourism statistics system and to improve marketing strategies to enhance Rwanda's promotion as a high quality tourism and investment destination. RDB identified that Rwanda is subject to insufficient visibility on the world stage due to the following constraints: the over-reliance on a single product, under-skilled human resources, poor infrastructure, limited access to finance, and weak involvement of communities and MSMEs. To address some of those constraints, RDB has suggested to increase the level of digitalisation by enhancing tourism regulation software and a modern statistical software.
