ZIMCODD Board Chairperson Rosewita Katsande officially opened the 8th Zimbabwe Annual Debt Conference in Masvingo, calling for a people-centred approach to sovereign debt management that advances justice, protects Zimbabwe’s sovereignty and delivers inclusive socio-economic development.
Speaking under the conference theme, “Rethinking Sovereign Debt Management in Zimbabwe: Justice, Sovereignty and People-Centred Socio-Economic Development in a Global Polycrisis,” she highlighted the urgent need to confront Zimbabwe’s debt burden, strengthen domestic resource mobilisation, protect investment in essential public services and pursue home-grown solutions that put citizens at the centre of economic decision-making.
The conference brings together government, Parliament, development partners, academia, civil society, labour, the private sector and citizens to explore practical solutions for achieving debt justice and sustainable development in Zimbabwe.

Ross Clarke from the Enhancing Accountability Technical Assistance Facility spoke on the role of the private sector in strengthening accountability in South Africa. During his address, he lightheartedly referred to former Chief Justice Raymond Zondo as the 'GOAT' (Greatest of All Time) of justice—comparing his impact to that of Cristiano Ronaldo in football, especially in the context of the World Cup.

The Zimbabwe Coalition on Debt and Development (ZIMCODD) will convene an Investment & Equity Indaba (IEI) in Bikita on 29 April 2026.
Building on previous community engagements, the Indaba will bring together stakeholders to address governance gaps, environmental concerns, and accountability issues in the extractive sector.
As Zimbabwe’s lithium sector continues to grow, it is critical to ensure that local communities benefit equitably from their natural resources.

@FiaZimbabwe is calling for more spending on public health, arguing that debt obligations and spending priorities are leaving Zimbabweans with failing health services.
The organisation says healthcare must become a national priority.

On this Global Day to Fight Inequality, I stand with the #RedCardToInequality campaign.
My message: "Red Card to Overtaxing the Poor".
Salaries are already too small. Taxes leave us with nothing.
Tax the rich, not the poor.

Today we said no to inequality.
We also showed what yes looks like and we will continue to.
From the Women’s Village Banking collectives in Zambia, to the Usawa Barazas in Kenya, to the People’s Kitchen in Indonesia, communities aren’t waiting for permission to build a better world.

While the concern is about meeting the 15% Abuja Declaration target for health in our national budget, the immediate conversation should be about the timely disbursement of funds. Last year, the health budget was not fully spent.

The Girls Table was honoured to participate in the Global Day to Fight Inequality meeting hosted by Fight Inequality Alliance Zimbabwe. The dialogue brought together civil society organisations, activists, and students to reflect on the widening inequalities affecting communities and to collectively advocate for a more just and equitable Zimbabwe.
One of the areas of discussion was the urgent need to strengthen Zimbabwe's public healthcare system. Participants emphasized that quality healthcare is a fundamental human right and called on the Government to allocate resources fairly and invest in healthcare, education, infrastructure, and other essential public services.
The discussion also reflected on the commitments made under the Abuja Declaration (2001), in which African Union Member States pledged to allocate at least 15% of their annual national budgets to the health sector to improve health outcomes. Participants noted that Zimbabwe is yet to meet this benchmark consistently and stressed that it is equally important for allocated funds to be fully disbursed and accounted for.
The meeting also highlighted the value of the Blue Book as a tool for tracking budget allocations and promoting accountability. As conversations on inequality continue, participants called for increased investment in priority public services that directly improve people's lives and reduce inequality. As one participant aptly remarked, "Sometimes you just have to be a mosquito, you never know where your input will land," reminding everyone that every voice and every act of advocacy contributes to meaningful change.
The Girls Table remains committed to advocating for gender-responsive public financing, accountable governance, and equitable access to quality public services for all.

The same governments that put forward wealth levies in the global arena often impose austerity or avoid taxing the rich at home, @fightinequality’s @jenny_ricks observes. bit.ly/4fhivN6
