This report provides the first-ever public environmental expenditure in Rwanda. It was written under the theme: “Putting environment on budget.” The objective was to evaluate the appropriateness in the use of funds in the environment sector.

The study assessed the economic value of wetlands linked to community welfare and livelihoods. The study applied partial valuation techniques, socio-economic surveys, and literature reviews to identify livelihood activities supported by natural resources in Ihefu and levels of dependence on these resources.

This Public Environmental Expenditure Review (PEER) covers the first two financial years of the 10th Five Year Plan (FYP) (2008/09 and 2009/2010) and also draws on the experience from the 2009 PEER covering the 9th FYP. The PEER, therefore, provides a basis for the Royal Government of Bhutan (RGoB) to determine how the public expenditures are reflecting the development objectives for the environment and natural resources.

This report indicates the value of the environment and of the use of natural resources and their importance for the economy of Mozambique.
