Policy Dialogue
EPRN organizes policy dialogues around emerging policy issues or other selected topics. The topics are selected by partners or members. The policy dialogues prove a space for research dissemination and advocacy thus promote socio-economic policy reforms for wellbeing of Rwandans.

EPRN experienced an increasing turn-ups during these sessions over time.
After each dialogue a report including policy recommendations is shared with concerned policy making institutions and other key stakeholders.
