About

An experienced lawyer in the areas of litigation, and dispute resolution, and a drafter of laws, policies, and regulations as well as advisory services to Government entities since 2003, especially for the Ministry of Health. Specific areas include research, regulatory practice, and legislative drafting. 

Also worked at a regional level on various research projects one of which was on Social Protection in the East African Community. Key publications I have worked on include a report entitled “Situational Analysis and Feasibility Study of Options for Harmonization of Social Health Protection Systems in the East African Community Partner States.” The report was published on the East African Community website. I am a trainer for WHO on International trade and investment law and health. I serve as a Co–Principal Investigator (CO-PI) in research projects such as social innovation in health at the University of Rwanda.   
I have served as a Senior State Attorney at the Ministry of Justice/Attorney General in which capacity I was in charge of representing government entities in courts of law in litigation matters as well as arbitrating between them and private entities. I serve as a Committee member on the Rwanda National Research Ethics Committee (RNEC), the East African NCD Alliance (EANCD), and Rwanda Agency for Accreditation and Quality Healthcare (RAAQH). I also serve as a Legal Analyst for the Rwanda Food ad and Drugs Authority.
