Rwanda is a compact, landlocked country in East Africa, bordered by Uganda, Tanzania, Burundi and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The country's hilly landscape gives it the nickname “Land of a Thousand Hills,” with areas also including lakes and savannah. Rwanda has earned global recognition for its environmental efforts, including a 2008 nationwide plastic bag ban and monthly clean-up days. It’s also one of the few places on Earth where mountain gorillas still roam free.

Country facts
  • Rwanda leads the world in female representation in government, with over 60% of its parliamentary seats being held by women.
  • The last Saturday of each month is reserved for Umuganda, a mandatory nationwide day of community work that ranges from clearing streets to building public infrastructure.
  • The country has four official languages: Kinyarwanda, English, French and Kiswahili. English was adopted more widely in schools after 1994 as part of wider national reforms.
  • Rwanda is recognised for its high-quality Arabica coffee, which is grown in the country's high-altitude regions. Coffee farming is a significant part of the economy and contributes to the livelihoods of many rural families.
  • Volcanoes National Park in the north is home to one of the largest remaining populations of endangered mountain gorillas, protected under strict conservation efforts.
  • The culture in Rwanda is rich in traditions, including music, dance, and art. The Intore dance, which features traditional drumming and choreography, is an important cultural performance.
