Spotlight: Rwanda
One of the most up-and-coming destinations in Africa, Rwanda is making strides in its tourism development. Its population of more than 13 million is also young, with about two-fifths under age 15 and another one-third between ages 15 and 29, creating a groundswell of change in consumption and aspiration. We peel back the curtains to reveal the real Rwanda in this panel and get to the heart of changes taking place in this iconic African destination.
