answer text <p>The UK sees corruption as an important barrier to economic reform and inclusive growth in Zimbabwe. We engage with the Government of Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission, civil society and other actors in the fight against corruption in Zimbabwe. In 2022 we sanctioned a Zimbabwean businessman for serious corruption. No UK aid is channelled directly through Government of Zimbabwe systems, instead, we work primarily through multilateral organisations, notably United Nations agencies, international Non-Governmental Organisations and the private sector to deliver our programmes.</p> more like this
