The high defaulter rates might be a result of wrong classification. High levels of defaulters, could also be caused by stockouts of RUTF. There is need to improve on our supplies. Work to be put in finding the correlation between stock-outs and high defaulter rate and factors associated with low cure rates. Efforts were put in 2019 to look into IMAM performance. There is already data from last year which might assist in attending to some issues being realised. Provinces need to look at their data. Follow ups were done last year to the health facility level. Results showed that a few health facilities in a district contribute to the high defaulter rates. Mentorship visits need to be planned for specific health facilities that have high defaulter rates. Most cases were misclassification or data entry error.

    ZIMBABWE ANNUAL BUDGET REVIEW FOR 2016 AND THE 2017 OUTLOOK Presented to the Parliament of Zimbabwe on Thursday, July 20, 2017 by The Hon. P. A. Chinamasa, M.P. Minister of Finance and Economic Development 1 1 2 FOREWORD In presenting the 2017 National Budget on 8 December 2016, I indicated the need to strengthen the outline of the Budget Statement presentation as an instrument of Budget accountability and fiscal transparency, in the process improving policy engagement and accessibility for a wider range of public and targeted audiences. Accordingly, I presented a streamlined Budget Statement, and advised that extensive economic review material, which historically was presented as part of the National Budget Statement, would now be provided through a new publication called the Annual Budget Review. I am, therefore, pleased to unveil and Table the first Annual Budget Review, beginning with Fiscal Year 2016. This reports on revenue and expenditure outturn for the full fiscal year, 2016. Furthermore, the Annual Budget Review also allows opportunity for reporting on other recent macro-economic developments and the outlook for 2017. As I indicated to Parliament in December 2016, the issuance of the Annual Budget Review, therefore, makes the issuance of the Mid-Term Fiscal Policy Review no longer necessary, save for exceptional circumstances requiring Supplementary Budget proposals. 3 Treasury will, however, continue to provide Quarterly Treasury Bulletins, capturing quarterly macro-economic and fiscal developments, in addition to the Consolidated Monthly Financial Statements published monthly in line with the Public Finance Management Act. This should avail the public with necessary information on relevant economic developments, that way enhancing and supporting their decision making processes, activities and engagement with Government on overall economic policy issues.

Box: 1020, Bindura, Zimbabwe Abstract: The youth in Zimbabwe have been involved in politics variedly. Resultantly, all have resorted to extreme ends of the possible solutions to conflicts. The study therefore sought to establish the youths’ inspiration for pacifism and activity in politics. This triangulated study was conducted following an exploratory approach. The study examined a convenience sample of 120 unemployed youth from Seke North district, Zimbabwe. In the sample, there were 80 males and 40 females. Data were collected through in-depth interviews before scrutiny using NVIVO software for an effective large scale qualitative analysis. The study was guided by a concept of political participation. It was established in the study that the youths’ political actions are a response to some stimuli. The activities by the youth were also noted to be protests over non-recognition, abuses and ‘containment’. Key words: Youth Political Participation Withdrawal Inactivity Conflict resolution Containment INTRODUCTION development, the same youth are pushed to the peripherals for menial duties.
