Government Health Assistance on the Genocide Survivors' Living Standards in the Selected Sectors in Gasabo District, Rwanda.

ABSTRACT

This research study aimed at analyzing the Government assistance in health program in developing genocide survivors’ living standards in Rwanda. The research focused to identify the demographic characteristics of the respondents, to determine the extent of Rwandan Government health assistance in developing genocide survivors’ living standards, to establish the level of genocide survivors’ living standards and their integration in National development, to determine f there is a significant relationship between the extent of Rwandan Government health assistance on genocide survivors and the level of genocide survivors’ living standards in selected sectors of Gasabo District. The study was covered the four selected sectors of GASABO District such as KIMIRONKO, REMERA, KINYINYA and RUSORORO. The research contains findings from 346 beneficiaries of FARG who formed the target population during this research and 5 top leaders of FARG and IBUKA whose daily job description intervene mostly with genocide survivors. For data collection, questionnaires have been administered to the above groups and reports have been consulted for this purpose. In general the results from the sample survey indicate that the assistance of FARG in health program after twelve years from his establishment in 1998, especially for five years from 2006 up to 2010 showed that most of needy genocide survivors have improved their lives and have been integrated in National development due to Government assistance. The research findings reveal also that a great support have been observed on genocide survivors’ living standards but the budget allowed in health program is still insufficient to overcome all genocide survivors health problems in RWANDA. The health assistance on genocide survivors permits their improvement in many activities, such as education and other income generating activities. Therefore, without health assistance, they couldn’t do anything. The research findings reveal also that the health assistance activities go increasing in lazt five years and further efforts are implemented by FARG’ top Leaders for diminishing health problems for genocide survivors and state that the end of health problems for a human being is never reached until he is still alive. For that reason this study recommends to the Government of Rwanda through FARG to improve the health program policy and well manage the budget allowed on it and to make further efforts in reaching the most needy genocide survivors. After analyzing the data obtained, the research study confirmed that the Rwandan Government assistance in health program has improved the genocide survivors’ living standards in Rwanda.
