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

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.

wetlands are being degraded and lost faster than any other ecosystem, with -

Before 1999, land rights in Rwanda were governed by three regimes: customary
(traditional) law, colonial laws still in effect, and laws enacted after independence. In each of
these, men were privileged in ownership and control of land whereas women were excluded

The 1999 Succession Law restructured and harmonized land ownership in Rwanda,
superseding all prior legislation. A significant portion of these changes related to gender
equality. Equal rights to umunani (umunani or ascending partition is an act accomplished by -

Le retour des réfugiés de 1959, la politique de regroupement de l'habitat adoptée en
1996, la disette qui frappe le pays depuis 1999, la faible pluviosité qui prévaut dans le
pays depuis deux ans après le phénomène el nino, conduisent à une prise de
conscience nouvelle de ce qu'il faut appeler la question foncière, de ses relations
avec la production agricole dans le cadre de l'option de sécurité alimentaire. Les
conditions dans lesquelles la problématique foncière s'est progressivement imposée -

Conflits armés et crises alimentaires contribuent à leur manière à urbaniser
l’Afrique sub-saharienne lorsque les villes jouent un rôle de refuge et que les combats
se déroulent à la campagne. Malgré l’évacuation de ses habitants lors de la chute du
régime Habyarimana en 1994, la capitale du Rwanda n’a pas démenti ce schéma et
s’est vite repeuplée une fois le génocide terminé. La différence est qu’elle est
désormais tenue par des élites tutsi et que les bouleversements de l’année 1994 ont
