An in-depth Study on the impacts of Operation Murambatsvina Medium term policy support 1. Legislation review to support informal sector activities and restore income security for affected families that constituted 73% of the respondents in this study. 2. Inclusive planning and recovery process to ensure appropriate, pro-poor and people-centred recovery and rehabilitation process. 3. The Government of Zimbabwe should be accountable for the upholding of civil and human rights for all affected households. 4. Greater donor response to the humanitarian imperative, and support to civil society response programmes for more effective coverage. 5. Deliberate scaling up of access to information and awareness to ensure that affected households are informed of their entitlements and where to secure them. Regrettably, these recommendations have been almost wholly ignored by the Zimbabwe Government, as have been the recommendations of the UN Special Envoy. The Zimbabwe Government persists in claiming the necessity for the Operation, denies the adverse consequences of the Operation, and continues with forced displacements, despite stating that the Operation was complete. 4
