This thesis aims to investigate and describe what Disaster Risk Reduction and Risk Management looks like in Zimbabwe through the research question “How is Disaster Risk Reduction implemented and executed in Zimbabwe?”. Exactly what will be analyzed in this paper is then what actions are done in Zimbabwe to prevent disasters, how they plan and implement actions and policies, how they handle ongoing disasters and also how they deal with the aftermath of disasters. This is to see how a country such as Zimbabwe with their preconditions and circumstances performs when it comes to Disaster Risk Reduction and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction. The results show that Zimbabwe has established different measures to handle the matter, such as creating the Department for Civil Protection and the Civil Protection Act among many other things, but that despite their efforts they might need to further improve some aspects.
