Public Sector<br />
Definition<br />
<strong>The</strong> government and its decentralised units — including the police, military, public roads<br />
and transit authorities, primary schools and healthcare system — that use public funds and<br />
provide services based on the motivation to improve citizens’ lives rather than to make a<br />
profit. 64<br />
Example in practice<br />
Rwanda’s ministry of education has implemented a policy of free primary education for all<br />
of its citizens, enacting a no-fee policy in which public school tuitions have been abolished<br />
as part of its public sector reform.<br />
