Zimbabwe

Our support in the country is anchored in the National Action Committee which brings together all Government Ministries and Departments (including non-WASH) for sector joint programming.

We have contributed to the draft of the National Data Harmonization Framework and sector coordination strategies and roadmaps such as the newly adopted national sanitation and hygiene strategy (2018-2022).
