Abstract

A brief introduction to Rwanda, its recent history and agricultural policies provides context for the reader. This then leads into a brief discussion of rural livelihood strategies. Next is basic documentation of income and expenditure surveys conducted prior to the war (1990) and after the war (2000). Then patterns are compared in household strategies in a time before the disruptions to a time of relative calm after the major disruptions.
