Evidence-informed policy making (EIPM) is critical to ensuring

become a routine part of Zimbabwe’s policymaking processes?

series. Both platforms share a common goal of creating an enabling
environment for engaging citizens, media, civil society and government
departments on key national topical issues. Click to read more
