Multisectoral Assistance and Livelihood support in Manicaland, Masvingo and Matabeleland South (November - December 2021)

IOM, in partnership and close coordination with the Government of Zimbabwe, conducted DTM household intention assessments in villages assessed during the multisectoral village assessments in Chimanimani and Chipinge districts of Manicaland province in Zimbabwe. This exercise conducted between 9 November and 1 December 2021 collected data from a total of 599 households in all two districts combined.

The following report is an analysis of the data gathered from the assessment, covering household profiles, intentions, and livelihood situations. The main objective of the survey was to better understand the intentions and living conditions of the targeted population to support recovery and reintegration efforts by providing the support needed in terms of livelihoods. However, purposive sampling was used to select beneficiaries hence the results of the study cannot be generalized to a larger
population and are indicative of trends and patterns only as the sample is not representative of the entire population in the two districts.
