SADC Gender Protocol Barometer Baseline Study: Zimbabwe

SADC Gender Protocol Barometer Baseline Study: Zimbabwe by Sithokozile Nyaradzo Thabethe

In June 2009 the Southern Africa Protocol Alliance commissioned research in the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC) region that sought to map out the current state of governments with regards to various social, political and economic indicators in the SADC protocol on Gender and Development. The project ran for a month the 1st to the 30th of June 2009.

The objectives of undertaking such a study were set out as follows:
• To collect baseline data on the key provisions of the SADC Protocol on Gender and Development.
• To use this accurate and updated baseline data to develop lobbying and advocacy tools, targeting national governments and regional bodies to deliver on the Protocol commitments.
• To use this research data to enable civil society to track the progress made by SADC Member states towards achieving the set targets in the SADC Protocol on Gender and Development.
