Transport and Logistics in Zimbabwe: Policy and Future Directions
摘要
The chapter critically assesses national policies and strategies aimed at enhancing sustainability and resilience. It explores the regulatory environment, institutional frameworks, and government-led initiatives designed to address infrastructure challenges, economic constraints, and environmental concerns. The main grain of argument permeating this chapter is to investigate the current policies governing the transport and logistics sector, identifying strengths and weaknesses in implementation and regulatory frameworks. Special attention is given to Zimbabwe’s efforts to modernise road, rail, and air transport systems, integrate smart logistics solutions, and promote climate-friendly transport alternatives. Additionally, the chapter evaluates how Zimbabwe’s transport policies align with regional and continental agendas, such as SADC infrastructure protocols and AfCFTA trade facilitation measures.
