In the face of great economic uncertainty in Zimbabwe, new ISS research on the country’s long-term prospects can guide strategic decision making about the future.

This event launches the latest report by the ISS African Futures & Innovation programme. It examines current and future trajectories across the agriculture, demographic, education, economic, infrastructure and health sectors. Several factors could set Zimbabwe on a higher growth path, but not under the existing state-centred development paradigm.

This seminar is co-hosted by the SAPES Trust.
