This is supported by various other laws and policies.

These measures include a bill on harmonised marriages and minimum age of marriage (18 years). a bill to amend the Guardianship of Minors Act to remove discriminatory provisions on and enactment of the Education Amendment Act which amened the Education Act and introduced provisions to enhance girls’ access to education, etc.

It also noted the lack of exclusive gender equality legislation.

- Maternal health / morbidity / mortality
Type:RecommendationSession:26th session, November 2016Status:AcceptedContents:Strengthen efforts to increase women’s access to health-care facilities and medical assistance in order to address the prevailing high maternal mortality rateImplementationNational Report Annex:
The 2019 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) established a maternal mortality ratio of 462 maternal deaths per 100 000 live births. This ratio, though still shy of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3.3.1 (of reducing global maternal mortality ratio to 70 deaths per 100 000 live births) still points to a progressive decline in the MMR when compared to 615 maternal deaths per 100 000 live births which were reported by the 2015 Zimbabwe Demographic and Health Survey (ZDHS)(i.e. 33% decline) and 960 maternal deaths per 100 000 live births which were determined by the 2010-2011 ZDHS. The reduction in the MMR can be attributed to significant increases in the number of women that get assistance from skilled medical personnel during their pregnancy and delivery. According to the 2019 MICS, 93% of women who had a live birth two years before the survey were attended to by a skilled medical personnel at least once during their pregnancy. The results of the 2019 MICS also show that 86% of women who had a live birth in the two years that preceded the survey were assisted by a skilled attendant during delivery. The same proportion of women (86%) delivered at health facilities.
Stakeholder Summary:
Para 7) Referring to relevant supported recommendations from the previous review and noting efforts to reduce maternal mortality and mitigating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, ZHRC expressed concern about: (a) the deteriorating health standards due, inter alia, to shortage of drugs and outdated infrastructure and medical equipment, and (b) the insufficient personal protective equipment for frontline workers.
Para 68) JS23 noted improvements in the standard of maternal health packages, but expressed concern that these improvements were lead and facilitated by donor funds which was an unsustainable way of facilitating development. JS2 stated that although there was a decrease in maternal mortality, it was still far above target 3. 1 of Sustainable Development Goal 3.

Para 19) JS7 noted the existence of laws that discriminated against persons based on their real or imputed sexual orientation, including Section 78 of the Constitution, which restricts marriage rights to heterosexual relationships, Section 73 of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act, which criminalises consensual same-sex sexual relations regardless of the age of the persons, and Section 14(1)(f) of the Immigration Act, which classifies “homosexuals” as prohibited persons. In addition, other laws which although were prima facie neutral, have been weaponised by law enforcement officials, including Section 41 of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act, on disorderly conduct and Section 46 of this Act on criminal nuisance.

Government has removed customs duty on all imported anti-malarial medicines and commodities and permitted local pharmaceutical companies to produce anti-retroviral drugs. Government has a bilateral agreement for doctors and other health professionals with countries such as Cuba to alleviate shortage of doctors in the country.
Para 63) Government is scaling up Anti-Retroviral Therapy (ART) services to reduce morbidity and mortality due to HIV and AIDS through: making drugs available and accessible; offering patients ARVs free of charge; training primary counsellors in rapid HIV testing; establishing sites offering ART services; and mobilising and empowering communities to support improved access to care and support.
Para 126) Despite facing economic challenges, Government remains committed to making funding mechanisms in the social services sector such as BEAM and AMTO viable. It is engaging development partners to continue supporting these mechanisms as well as others such as the Health Development Fund and the Child Protection Fund while it pursues ways of fully funding them from its own resources. For example, Government established the National AIDS Trust Fund, which is funded through the AIDS Levy, to cater for those living with HIV and AIDS (about 1.4 million people are living with HIV and AIDS, of which about 800,000 are receiving treatment). Government plans to introduce a national health insurance scheme to ensure that all persons, especially the vulnerable, can have access to proper health care.
Midterm report
The new Constitution makes specific provision for the right to health care. The right includes the right of every person living with a chronic illness to have access to basic healthcare services for the illness and the requirement that no person may be refused emergency medical treatment in any health-care institution.
More health institutions have been created to ensure that the majority of the population is within a 10 kilometre radius of a health centre. This is the country’s set standard within the Primary Health Care Approach which was adopted when Zimbabwe signed the 2008 Ouagadougou Declaration on Primary Healthcare and Health Systems in Africa. Following this, priority has been placed on revitalising the health care delivery system to ensure an effective and efficient referral system and emergency services. Most primary care facilities are functional as they continue to benefit from both Government and donor resources.
The availability of vital medicines at institutions by the end of 2013 was 66.6%. With development partner support, which is targeted at the communities, 87.2% of primary health care facilities have at least 80% of selected essential medicines.
Government is scaling up Anti-Retroviral Therapy (ART) services to reduce morbidity and mortality due to HIV and AIDS through :
• making drugs available and accessible;
• offering patients ARVs free of charge;
• training primary counsellors in rapid HIV testing;
• establishment of sites offering ART services; and
• mobilising and empowering communities to support improved access to care and support.
