This study, commissioned by UNICEF, examines formal fostering policy and practice from the point of view of the Rwandan government and fostering agencies, and explores the perceptions of fostering of children, foster parents, local authorities and other members of local communities. This is a condensed version of a case study produced by the Government of Rwanda, UNICEF and Save the Children Alliance and published by UNICEF under the title of “Umwana Wanjye ni Uwawe ni Uwacu = My Child is Yours and Ours: The Rwandan Experience of Foster Care for Separated Children”.
