GIZ and the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MINICOM) commissioned this study aiming at examining the challenges encountered by women and youth in trade and how the same group can exploit the opportunities presented by the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). The findings of this study inform the position paper that articulates the policy position for Rwanda, and Rwanda’s negotiation team will use it during upcoming negotiations for the Women and Youth Protocol under AfCFTA Phases II and III.
