The USAID/Zimbabwe Resilience through Accelerating New Community-based Holistic Outcomes for Resource Sustainability (Resilience ANCHORS) Activity is a five-year project focused on building the capacity of local partners and communities on sustainable natural resources governance to safeguard biodiversity and build community resilience. The project will empower Zimbabwean communities in the Southeast Lowveld to develop selected landscapes into “resilience anchors” and reduce their vulnerability to climatic shocks and economic stresses. The activity will work closely with local organizations and partner with communities to manage natural resources in a way that creates economic growth, assures conservation of biodiversity and water resources, improves community livelihoods, and promotes resilience. It has three objectives: (1) Improve economic benefits from strengthened community-level governance and oversight of conservation enterprises; (2) Increase sustainable access to supplies of water of sufficient quantity and quality to meet human, economic, and ecosystem needs; and (3) Strengthen locally-led development and private sector engagement. ECODIT is working with a broad array of local partners, including communities, the private sector, civil society, and local government bodies to achieve these goals, drawing on its extensive experience in community and private sector engagement and natural resource governance.
