A market systems analysis focusing on improving job quality and livelihoods for Rwanda's informal workers in the garments and tailoring sector.

The garments and tailoring sector in Rwanda is in its infancy and most businesses in this sector are largely informal. Sida's Promoting decent work in Rwanda’s informal economy programme is specifically tasked with trying to improve job quality for informal workers.

This report sets out potential intervention areas which can address the root causes of key market constraints to better job quality. It looks at how to strengthen the garments and tailoring market system and improve job quality for the informally employed.
