Zimbabwe has made significant strides in promoting gender equality and women’s economic empowerment and financial inclusion, particularly over the last four years.

This report showcases how various measures, policies and support mechanisms are being continually implemented to elevate the status of women, men, girls and boys in line with domestic commitments, and to fulfil regional and international obligations under the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
