"The funding came at an opportune time in which we are dealing with the residual effects of Cyclone Idai. The intervention by the People's Republic of China through the UNDP has made it possible for the government of Zimbabwe to move from emergency relief to recovery," Moyo said.
Moyo said through the assistance, the Zimbabwean government has made a lot of strides in restoring normalcy in Chimanimani and Chipinge as well as the other seven districts that were affected by the natural disaster.
Speaking at the same occasion, UNDP Resident Representative Georges van Montfort expressed gratitude to the Chinese government for supporting UNDP's resources mobilization efforts, saying that "I am particularly pleased, not only that we can help assist vulnerable communities in their recovery efforts, but also as this is our first engagement with the People's Republic of China in Zimbabwe and I thank the Ambassador for his confidence in the UNDP and this contribution to Zimbabwe.
"The project we are officially launching today arises from the need to address the impact of the Cyclone Idai to homes and community public infrastructure in the affected communities and is in line with the Cyclone Idai Appeal that identified reconstruction of critical infrastructure such as housing, schools and clinics as a priority," he said.
