The National Unity and Reconciliation Commission (NURC) is pleased to present the results of the latest national opinion survey on social cohesion conducted in 2007.

The social cohesion survey attempts to measure the degree of citizens' trust in governmental initiatives, the degree of involvement of citizens in governmental reforms and decentralized governance and finally the judgment of citizens on judicial efficiency and fairness of the gacaca process. The findings from the 2007 survey reflect the opinions of almost 10,000 individuals. They give a picture of the current opinion of Rwandans on various aspects of social cohesion, including interpersonal trust, trust in Government action and decentralization, attitudes toward land reform and toward various aspects of the gacaca process. It also shows and discusses trends in public opinion on those issues since 2005.
