He has received recognition for his leadership in peace building and reconciliation, development, good governance, promotion of human rights and women's empowerment, and advancement of education and ICT. President Kagame currently serves as co-chair of the United Nations Secretary General's Advisory Group on Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and as co-chair of the International Telecommunication Union's Broadband Commission. Under President Kagame's leadership, Rwanda has become one of the most compelling stories of economic development with an average annual growth rate of 7% over the past 10 years. Often referred to as Africa's biggest success story, Rwanda is projected to achieve — and possibly even surpass — its MDGs which is largely attributed to its progressive ICT policy.
