The Zimbabwe International Trade Fair Company urged environmental stakeholders to transform climate threats into economic opportunities through new technology investments and sustainable practices. Dr Nicholas Ndebele addressed the 2025 Zimbabwe Climate Change Sustainability Week and Green Business Expo in Bulawayo on Wednesday. The nation experiences severe climate impacts through recurring droughts, irregular rainfall patterns, and rising temperatures that threaten food security and water resources. Rural communities face particularly acute challenges from these environmental changes. Bulawayo exemplifies these struggles with water shortages affecting hundreds of thousands of residents.

Zimbabwe targets building a climate-resistant economy by 2030 through National Development Strategy frameworks. The country commits to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 40 percent per capita before 2035 under updated Nationally Determined Contributions. Dr Ndebele emphasized fostering discussions between private sector organizations and civil society groups. The ZITF Company promotes sustainable growth across trade, commerce, and industrial sectors. Investment mobilization remains essential for achieving regenerative agriculture, responsible mining, and ecosystem restoration goals.
