THE Zimbabwe National Statistics Agency (ZIMSTAT) has officially launched the 2025 Zimbabwe Social Registry Survey (ZISO) as part of strengthening the nation’s social safety nets.

The national initiative was announced on Monday and it aims to collect detailed household-level data to build a comprehensive Zimbabwe Social Registry.

The survey, conducted in collaboration with the Ministry of Public Service, Labour and Social Welfare, is designed to be a cornerstone for social protection, poverty reduction, and inclusive development.

It will serve as a unified data system to enhance the planning, implementation, and monitoring of various social programs across the country.

The first phase of the exercise will commence with a complete census of all households in Mangwe, Nkayi, and Mudzi districts, representing approximately 2% percent of the national population.
