As the country moves toward a service oriented economy, WCF sponsors Business Seminars/Mentorship and English classes to equip local small business owners and entrepreneurs with the practical business skills and knowledge necessary for the sustainable growth of their businesses so that they can support their families and their communities. Our Seminars and Mentorship programs provide training on topics such as Entrepreneurship, Business Plans, Budgeting, Marketing, Customer Service, Risk Management and Business Ethics.
The 1994 genocide devastated the economy. Though Rwanda has seen significant growth since then, rebuilding the economy remains a challenge. 39% of the population still lives on less than $1.25 a day. 57% of Rwandans live below the poverty line and 37% live in extreme poverty. As of February 2016, the unemployment rate in Rwanda is 13.2%. Poor infrastructure, lack of technical and managerial skills, and a high cost of doing business pose challenges to small business owners.
