Southern African countries met at Victoria Falls to talk about numbers and data. Zimbabwe has won praise for improving its statistics compared to other nations. The country collects information well and shares it with the world. Banks and global groups trust Zimbabwe's data when making decisions. Leaders from 16 countries aim to replicate Zimbabwe's approach.

Deputy Minister David Mnangagwa spoke for Zimbabwe at the meeting. He said the country works hard to count things correctly. International groups, such as the World Bank, use Zimbabwe's numbers in their reports. The statistics help plan hospitals, schools, and roads nationwide. Good data helps leaders make informed decisions about finances and projects.

Countries want to sign a new agreement about sharing statistics. The deal will enable all nations to work together more effectively. Leaders discussed past promises and outlined new plans for the future. The meeting enables countries to learn from one another about counting people and tracking progress. Better statistics mean better lives for everyone across southern Africa.
