| dc.description | Agriculture is a vital source of income and food access for many people in Africa, including those in Zimbabwe. However, most farmers, fishers, pastoralists, forest dwellers, and indigenous communities in rural areas are disproportionately poor, undernourished, and highly vulnerable to conflicts and weather-related challenges. Their low productivity and limited knowledge often leave them unable to access sufficient diets or escape the cycle of poverty. The drought crisis in Southern Africa, coupled with the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, has significantly hampered agricultural production and trade. According to the World Bank, Zimbabwe's gross domestic product (GDP) was expected to contract by 10 percent in 2020 due to the pandemic. The various challenging situations and macroeconomic imbalances have prompted the Government of Zimbabwe to request the support of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in joining the Hand-in-Hand (HIH) Initiative to enhance its capacity in addressing poverty. | |
