Zimbabwean land redistribution

Zimbabwean land redistribution refers to the government's efforts to transfer land from mainly white commercial farmers to Black Zimbabweans, aiming to address historical inequalities and promote land ownership among indigenous populations. Initiated in the early 2000s, this process involved redistributing large farms, often through resettlement programs, to empower local farmers and support agricultural development. While intended to promote equity, the redistribution faced challenges like loss of productivity, disputes, and economic impacts. Overall, it represents a significant effort to reshape land ownership to better reflect Zimbabwe's post-colonial demographic and social realities.
