The Sustainable Development Goals in Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe is steadily advancing towards its vision of becoming an upper-middle-income society by 2030, guided by national strategies that are closely aligned with global and regional development agendas. The United Nations has walked this path alongside the country, supporting national priorities through coordinated, joined-up programmes that address food security, education, energy, jobs, digital connectivity and climate resilience. By localizing the SDGs across provinces and districts and strengthening national coordination and data systems, the partnership has turned ambition into tangible results for communities. Gains in health, food security and economic recovery signal that progress is real and momentum is building. With a continued focus on inclusion, innovation and leaving no one behind, the next phase of cooperation promises to deepen resilience, unlock opportunities for young people, and build a more prosperous and sustainable future for all Zimbabweans. The UN remains a committed partner in this journey — working together to translate stability into lasting transformation and hope into shared prosperity.
