Abstract: For the past two decades, Zimbabwe has experienced a pervasive economic collapse. Most of the challenges were caused by policy inconsistencies, bad policy choices, economic mismanagement and political instability. This led to deindustrialization with a sharp decline in manufacturing and agriculture productivity and output, which consequently caused a sharp increase in unemployment and poverty.
