To achieve these objectives, GIZ Rwanda is active in the sectors of Governance, Climate & Energy, Sustainable Growth and Digitalisation. The Macroeconomic Investment Policies (MIP) program is a joint Rwandan-German Development Cooperation project implemented by GIZ, commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). The project aims at strengthening individual and institutional capacities for economic analyses and evidence-based policymaking in five areas: planning and implementation of public investments, macroeconomic modelling, promotion of evidence-based tax policy, improvement of research-based higher education, and strengthening research and policy dialogue. Since 2016, the Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (MINECOFIN)—in collaboration with the GIZ Macroeconomic and Investment Policies programme (MIP)—offers the Young Economist Programme (YEP) to recent graduates with a Bachelor’s degree specialized in economics.
