Essential to the reconstruction of Rwanda after the genocide of 1994 was the formation of a new government. The women of Rwanda were an integral part of civic life post-genocide and their efforts have been recognized with formidable representation in Parliament. This video segment from the Wide Angle film "Ladies First" provides an overview of the role of women in Rwandan government.
