A cool example of sustainable development in Africa
Filed in archive Sustainable Development on March 31, 2009
This is a cool example I found recently on how Dubai is helping Rwanda with developing tourism capabilities and improve its level of welfare.
In this article (link here) in Fast Company, the authors highlight how different institutions and countries like UAE are helping Rwanda's tourism's industry flourish. even though the country is affected by crisis, it has made significant profit compared to the country's size during the last 15 years.
Is there a secret? Well, I think the notable part of the country's strategy is its partnership model: Fifteen The small African country has embraced a new model of economic development by building a global network of powerful friends to lure private investment — and market the brand of Rwanda.
