- Abstract
The article discusses the challenges faced by the Batwa or historically marginalized people (HMP) in Rwanda and the lack of willingness of the Rwandan government to impose national policies. Topics include the lack of representation of Batwa in the governance structure of Rwanda, the expulsion of their ancestral lands with no warning, compensation or other means of subsistence and the refusal to recognize the ethnic identification which has been banned since the 1994 war and genocide.
