INTENTION SURVEY
Overview
Tropical Cyclone Idai made landfall in Zimbabwe on 15 March 2019 and the country experienced floods and sustained heavy
rains. From the 24th of February to the 5th of March 2021 and from the 8th to the 14th of April 2021, IOM, in partnership and
close coordination with the Government of Zimbabwe, conducted DTM return intention assessments in all the wards of
Buhera, Chimanimani and Chipinge districts of Manicaland province in Zimbabwe. This exercise collected data from a total of
2,167 IDP households (HH) in all the 3 districts combined. The following report is an analysis of the data gathered from the
assessment, covering household profiles, intentions, and livelihood situations. The main objective of the survey is to better
understand the intentions and living conditions of the population residing in these affected areas to support recovery and
reintegration efforts by providing the support needed in terms of shelter and livelihoods. An electronic questionnaire was used
to collect the data and simple random sampling was used as the sample selection method for the respondents. Analysis of the
data has been done using descriptive statistics and visualisation techniques. While our approach was in-person administration
of questionnaires, a few respondents could not be reached in person as they were not present at their homesteads. However,
the results of the study cannot be generalized to a larger population and are indicative of trends and patterns only as the
sample is not representative of the entire IDP population in the 3 districts.

IOM ZIMBABWE | 10CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This report analysed and compared the findings of the responses that were obtained from IDP households in the districts of Buhera, Chimanimani and Chipinge with data
being collected between 24 February 2021 - 7 March 2021 and 8 – 14 April 2021. The objective of the assessment was to obtain a better understanding on the intentions
of the IDPs, their current livelihoods and the condition of their shelter.
Overall, the findings suggest that there remains a huge shelter gap in the IDAI affected districts. The findings also suggest that the majority of IDPs do not intend to
relocate from their current places of residence and that support in terms of livelihoods is required. Agricultural trainings, distribution of agricultural kits and support of
poultry projects are some of the livelihood activities that can be implemented to assist the IDPs. Also, it remains important to upscale shelter interventions in these
districts.
