Vice President Kembo Mohadi declared that Zimbabwe must place climate action at the center of its national development plans. Defense Minister Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri delivered his remarks at the Environment and Climate Change Dialogue launch in Harare. The event carries the theme of accelerating environmental stewardship for a climate-smart Zimbabwe by 2030. Zimbabwe faces severe environmental challenges from recurring droughts to extreme weather events. These problems require both national solutions and international cooperation.

The dialogue occurs during Zimbabwe's transition from National Development Strategy 1 to National Development Strategy 2. Both strategies support President Mnangagwa's Vision 2030 for an upper-middle-income economy. The 2024 El Niño drought left over seven million Zimbabweans facing food insecurity. Community-driven adaptation strategies must focus on climate-smart agriculture and water harvesting. Zimbabwe pursues innovative financing through green bonds, carbon markets, and private partnerships to bridge funding gaps.
