Country Profile In spite of having once had a well-developed infrastructure and financial systems, Zimbabwe's economy has declined rapidly since the late 1990s. GDP has fallen by half since 1998. All sectors of the economy have been affected, especially agriculture. According to the IMF, the economy contracted by 14.1% in 2008 but is expected to expand by 2.8% in 2009. Budget revenue in 2008 was $133 million, while donors gave $670 million in aid. Electricity is severely restricted and there are frequent water shortages. Unemployment is reportedly around 94%. Life expectancy – at 37 for men and 34 for women - is the lowest in the world. HIV/AIDS kills an average of 50 people a day.

    SOUTHERN AFRICA Flash Update No.11 – Tropical Cyclone Eloise As of 28 January 2021 HIGHLIGHTS • More than 270,000 people have been affected by Eloise across Southern Africa, including 267,289 in Mozambique, more than 1,000 in Zimbabwe and more than 1,000 in Eswatini. • The death toll from Eloise has risen to 21, including 11 in Mozambique, 3 in Zimbabwe, 4 in Eswatini, 2 in South Africa and 1 in Madagascar. • With flood waters present in multiple locations, the risk of water-borne diseases, including cholera, is high. • Tens of thousands of hectares of crops have been flooded due to the Eloise weather system, which could have consequences for the next harvest and food security in the period ahead. SITUATION OVERVIEW The Eloise weather system has left at least 21 people dead -11 in Mozambique, 3 in Zimbabwe, 4 in Eswatini, 2 in South Africa and 1 in Madagascar- and affected more than 270,000 people across Southern Africa, according to preliminary information which continues to be updated as new data becomes available. Although the damage wrought by Eloise to date has been less widespread than Tropical Cyclone Idai in 2019, homes, crops and infrastructure in Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Eswatini and South Africa have been damaged or destroyed. In Mozambique, the number of people affected by Tropical Storm Eloise has risen to 267,289, as assessment teams have reached areas impacted by the storm and further information is becoming available. At least 20,167 people are sheltering in 32 temporary accommodation centres after being displaced by flooding, where urgent needs include clean water and sanitation to prevent disease outbreaks.

An increase of surface water Dondo extent was observed in the 29 January 2017 image compared to the 05 January 2017 image including the zones along the Pungwe river and several areas along this river were inundated. It is likely that flood waters 19°39'0"S 19°39'0"S have been systematically underestimated along highly vegetated areas along main river banks and within Sofala built-up urban areas because of the special Inhamizua characteristics of the satellite data used. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR - UNOSAT.
