I stood before international partners and potential investors to confidently reaffirm that Zimbabwe remains unequivocally open for business.Our nation is stepping up efforts to attract robust investment across key sectors of our economy.
Zimbabwe offers a uniquely competitive edge: a highly skilled and resilient workforce, a prime strategic location in Southern Africa, and diverse opportunities spanning mining, agriculture, tourism, energy, and aviation.Under the Second Republic, we have deliberately cultivated an investment environment where capital feels safe, protected, and empowered to grow.
Our commitment is backed by seamless investor aftercare and a strict policy of fair, equitable, and non-racial treatment for all who choose to partner with us.Zimbabwe is experiencing significant economic growth, and the opportunities available right now are vast. I invite global investors to come and experience the magic of Zimbabwe firsthand.

The 81st Session of the UNGA presents Zimbabwe with an important opportunity to strengthen international partnerships and advance its development priorities. Zimbabwe's engagement will further support efforts to mobilize resources for critical infrastructure, climate adaptation and resilience, sustainable development and debt-related solutions. Participation in high-level multilateral dialogue will also create opportunities to deepen cooperation with development partners and reinforce Zimbabwe's contribution to the global effort to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and the objectives of the 2030 Agenda.
HE Emmerson Mnangagwa held talks with UN Secretary General António Guterres on the sidelines of UNGA 81 in New York focusing on multilateralism climate justice water security and global reform. He called for fairer global governance stronger climate financing and greater support
Today, I had the honor of meeting with United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres in New York during the 81st Session of the UN General Assembly.
In our wide-ranging discussions on multilateralism, climate justice, water security, and global system reform, our message was clear: we come not merely as individual nations, but as one unified voice for Africa.
For too long, the international system has remained deeply unequal. True global peace and sustainable development cannot be achieved until the international financial architecture and global governance systems are structurally reformed to support developing nations fairly.
From advocating for robust climate adaptation financing to advancing water diplomacy for water-scarce nations, Africa stands ready to lead. We also firmly reaffirm that lasting stability requires the inclusion of women in global peace processes and the urgent resolution of ongoing international conflicts.
Thank you, Secretary-General Guterres, for recognizing Zimbabwe’s principled voice.
Together, as a united continent, we will continue to champion the development, equity, and future that Africa deserves.

After meeting President Emmerson Mnangagwa, African business leader Aliko Dangote says significant changes in Zimbabwe have renewed his confidence in investing in the country.
🗣️ “His Excellency has passed that exam, that’s why we’re here,” Dangote said, reflecting on his 2015 visit, when planned investments were abandoned.
Now, his delegation is exploring opportunities in:
⛽ Petroleum pipeline infrastructure
⚡ Coal power
🏗️ Cement production
⛏️ Mining concessions
Discussions also covered tax incentives, permits and security for proposed projects.
If realised, these investments could translate into jobs, contracts for local businesses, construction activity, transport opportunities, increased energy capacity and stronger industrial production.
2015: Investment plans abandoned.
2026: New investment discussions on the table.
Investment. Industry. Jobs. Progress in Motion. 🇿🇼
