Zimbabwe is advancing its digital economy development while prioritizing cybersecurity and data protection through domestic and international collaborations, Information Communication Technology Minister Tatenda Mavetera announced during the Tech Convergence Fora in Harare. The government seeks partnerships that strengthen local expertise in cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and digital infrastructure while maintaining control over national information systems.

Russia and Zimbabwe recently signed the UN Convention Against Cybercrime in Hanover and are cooperating on the National Educational Training Programme for Cyber Security Specialists, which enrolled 3,000 students in August with plans to expand to 10,000 participants. The initiative will establish a National Cyber Security Monitoring Centre designed to assess and safeguard information systems across the country.

Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe Deputy Governor Innocent Matshe emphasized the need for a unified digital infrastructure comprising identity, payments and services layers to replace fragmented systems. The integrated approach will enhance data security and support financial inclusion as Zimbabwe works with government agencies, international partners and private sector organizations to secure its digital future and create employment opportunities for young people.
