The construction works will be led through public partnership and teamwork between MoHCC and the Ministry of Local Government. The government is working on creatively developing domestic-based resourcing packages to cater for those in the informal sector- ensuring total inclusion and minimising over-reliance on donor support to finance the health sector. The development of a National Health Insurance Scheme (to cater for all citizens), will see improved access and affordability due to reduced User Fees. The prevailing macro-economic challenges have also impacted negatively on the health service, as costs for accessing care continue to escalate. The government has committed to enhancing Universal Health Coverage by allocating MoHCC a budget of USD$6.5 billion for the 2020 fiscal year and this is expected to enhance citizens’ access to healthcare at an affordable cost. Furthermore, MoHCC has incorporated robust health www.crownagents.com www.crownagents.com education (through advocacy and communication) among the citizens to ensure that social determinants that may increase risk of disease burden are reduced. A conscious and an alert population now exists and this is helping to reduce the risk. All these efforts work towards easy access, affordability regardless of economic status of citizens, and improved morale of health workers in service delivery.

    Mashonaland Central Province Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (Zimvac) 2020 Rural Livelihoods Assessment Report Foreword

    Mashonaland Central Province Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (ZimVAC) 2020 Rural Livelihoods Assessment Report Foreword The Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (ZimVAC) under the coordination of the Food and Nutrition Council, successfully undertook the 2020 Rural Livelihoods Assessment (RLA), the 20th since its inception. ZimVAC is a technical advisory committee comprised of representatives from Government, Development Partners, UN, NGOs, Technical Agencies and the Academia. In its endeavour to ‘promote and ensure adequate food and nutrition security for all people at all times’, the Government of Zimbabwe has continued to exhibit its commitment for reducing food and nutrition insecurity, poverty and improving livelihoods amongst the vulnerable populations in Zimbabwe through operationalization of Commitment 6 of the Food and Nutrition Security Policy (FNSP). As the country is grappling with the COVID-19 pandemic, this assessment was undertaken at an opportune time as there was an increasing need to urgently collect up to date food and nutrition security data to effectively support the planning and implementation of actions in a timely and responsive manner. The findings from the RLA will also go a long way in providing local insights into the full impact of the Corona virus on food and nutrition security in this country as the spread of the virus continues to evolve differently by continent and by country. In addition, the data will be of great use to Government, development partners, programme planners and communities in the recovery from the pandemic, providing timely information and helping monitor, prepare for, and respond to COVID-19 and any similar future pandemics. Thematic areas covered in this report include the following: education, food and income sources, income levels, expenditure patterns and food security, COVID-19 and gender based violence, among other issues.

    Zimbabwe Annual Budget Review for 2016 and the 2017 Outlook

    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.
