Development in Rwandan cities is spatially fragmented, and limited rural-to-urban migration constrains urbanization; public policy in Rwanda should prioritize investments and strengthen institutions along spatial, sectoral, and institutional dimensions. To achieve the rapid economic growth targeted until 2050, Rwanda will need to harness agglomeration economies through well-managed cities. The nature of agglomeration economies differs by the function of different settlements; Rwanda’s small towns, secondary cities, and Kigali should perform complementary functions, each differentiated by the type of scale and agglomeration economy they can deliver. A dynamic Kigali, the prime economic hub of Rwanda, remains central to harnessing agglomeration economies in Rwanda; if managed well, the city has the potential to become a much larger economy and to provide most of the gains from faster urbanization.
