The facilitation of dialogue is recognised as one of the three main priority areas in the UNDP Zimbabwe’s Country Programme and Action Plan, as well as the ZUNDAF. The Dialogue Financing Facility [DFF] established in 2004 is a flexible fund to promote dialogue initiatives among Zimbabweans with an objective to support the transition process and the development of Zimbabwe while strengthening the existing local community systems to enhance dialogue. In doing so, DFF, provides spaces for Zimbabwean citizens and decision makers to exchange, with dignity and respect, their opinions about national issues and to participate in decision making.

PROJECT OUTCOMES
DFF is implemented in participation with the government, UN Agencies, other development partners, civil society, faith based organizations, churches and other non-state actors.

The expected outcomes of the DFF implemented initiatives and activities will include:

1. Increased public participation in decision making on national issues
2. Strengthened processes that seek to support maintenance of peace, national healing and nation building
3. Strengthened national forums that promote social policy dialogue
4. Progress made towards improved international perceptions of Zimbabwe
