It is Rwanda's goal to house every single citizen in imidugudu (planned housing villages), where they will be able to own the land they live on. Unlike the traditional dispersed settlement, imidugudu concentrate houses for efficiency of land use and for ease of providing infrastructure, both in urban and rural areas. Imidugudu policy promises to decentralize planning authority to local levels, to incorporate economic activities, and to pay special attention to the needs of the disenfranchised, in partnership with international communities and NGOs.
