The country’s positive ranking of 51st in Africa for criminality reflects the absence of any criminal market with a significant influence. There are, however, certain criminal markets with a moderate influence in Rwanda, namely flora crimes, non-renewable resource crimes and human trafficking. Similarly, although most criminal actor-types exert very little influence in Rwanda, state-embedded criminal actors are a concern. Rwanda is the 7th most resilient state to organised crime in Africa, with 9 out of the 10 resilience indicator scores falling between 5 and 7.5. A robust legislative framework, an effective criminal-justice system and fairly strong social-protection measures contribute to the country’s high resilience score. However, the country's repressive media environment, combined with a constrained space for civil-society organisations to operate in, are blemishes on an otherwise respectable showing from Rwanda.
