Mitigation and National and Sub-National Response to Climate Change Institutional Architecture in Southern Africa:the case of Zimbabwe.
Summary
This research paper examines the institutional architecture for climate change mitigation and response in Zimbabwe, noting a lack of centralized policy despite existing legislation and active government initiatives.
Key insights
- Zimbabwe lacks a formal climate change policy, climate change strategy, or national adaptation strategy, despite having the Environment Management Act of 2002.
- Climate change efforts in Zimbabwe consist of uncoordinated programs, activities, and various pieces of legislation that collectively form the country's intended national policy.
- The Government of Zimbabwe is currently implementing activities related to both climate change adaptation and mitigation.
