Rwanda - Returnee Food Security and Livelihood Assessment, December 2015

The 1994 genocide resulted into massive outflows of Rwandans to neighboring countries. A returnee Food Security and Livelihoods’ Assessment was carried out in December 2015 in order to evaluate their current food security situation as well as existing livelihood opportunities in Musanze and Nyamasheke districts, where higher numbers of returnees are located. The assessment included primary data collection from 230 returnee households in the two districts. Additionally, qualitative complementary information was collected in 8 focus group discussions.
