The chapter examines the Zimbabwean disaster risk management strategies in relationship to the concept of resilience in disaster risk reduction (DRR). The study is buttressed by the fact that the country is a signatory to the SENDAI Disaster Risk Reduction Framework, whose main thrust is resilience in disaster risk management. As such, it is expected that the strategies promulgated towards disaster risk reduction in the country enhance resilience in disaster-prone environments and situations. It is therefore the aim of this chapter to explore and assess the resilience building strategies employed within the country. The chapter is based on a desktop study involving interrogation of literature and documents mined from Google Scholar, Ebsco and websites with news and policies, statutes, and related materials. For data analysis, the study mainly engaged thematic analysis. The responsibility for the administration and implementation of the Civil Protection Act, the regulatory foundation of the disaster risk management strategies in the country, lies with the Department of Civil Protection (DCP), that falls under the Ministry of Local Government and Public Works. It is further observed that the implementation of the Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) policy is derailed by a limited capacity to support the mooted practices on the ground. As such, disaster risk strategies in the country have remained reactive, and implemented on an ad hoc basis at local levels. It is concluded that resilience planning is a denominator in disaster risk management strategies in the country. Therefore, the chapter recommends that, since the government has the mandate to offer resilient service delivery in disaster risk management, there is need to strengthen governance to manage disaster risk by implementing effective institutions, particularly a comprehensive disaster risk management policy. Furthermore, local authorities, with the aid of other stakeholders, such as non-governmental organizations (NGOs), need to take centre-stage in implementing resilience strategies.
