The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a federally owned international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide operations. GIZ has worked in Rwanda for over 30 years.

The Macroeconomic Investment Policies (GIZ-MIP) project, as part of the Peaceful and Inclusive Societies Cluster, is a joint Rwandan-German Development Cooperation project implemented by GIZ; it is commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). The project aims at strengthening individual and institutional capacities for economic analyses and evidence-based policymaking. The project has five interlinked ‘support areas’: (1) Planning and implementation of public investments; (2) Macroeconomic modelling; (3) Promoting evidence-based fiscal policy; (4) Improving research-based higher education; and (5) Strengthening research and political dialogue. The Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (MINECOFIN) is GIZ-MIP’s main counterpart.
