The Zimbabwean Cabinet has approved a new five-year National Anti-Corruption Strategy for 2026-2030. The framework focuses on legal reform, institutional strengthening, and digitalization to improve transparency and accountability.
Why it matters
This strategy represents a significant policy effort to address systemic corruption, which is a major barrier to economic development in the region.
Cabinet has approved a new five-year National Anti-Corruption Strategy aimed at strengthening accountability, improving law enforcement and reducing corruption across public institutions.
The National Anti-Corruption Strategy 2 (2026-2030) is designed to provide a coordinated approach involving government institutions, civil society and citizens in tackling corruption.
Information Minister Zhemu Soda announced the approval during a post-Cabinet press briefing saying the strategy would strengthen the country's national integrity system.
"The National Anti-Corruption Strategy 2 (2026-2030) provides a coordinated, Whole-of-Government and Whole-of-Society framework to address corruption and strengthen Zimbabwe's national integrity system," Soda said.
The strategy is anchored on six pillars: legal reform, stronger institutions, effective enforcement, public engagement, targeted action in high-risk sectors and digitalisation.
It seeks to improve the effectiveness of existing laws and institutions while strengthening mechanisms for investigating and prosecuting corruption-related offences.
