Zagadnienie zawarte w pytaniu: „Jak skuteczne są środki walki z ubóstwem wdrażane w Zimbabwe?” nie było dotychczas poruszane w kontekście obszarów podmiejskich. Należałoby jednak je rozważyć, ponieważ kraj ten charakteryzuje wysoki wskaźnik ubóstwa, a jednocześnie władze i społeczeństwo Zimbabwe dążą do osiągnięcia Celu Zrównoważonego Rozwoju nr 1 z „Agendy 2030” ONZ nazwanego: „Koniec z ubóstwem”. Wykorzystując studium przypadku podmiejskiego regionu Mutasa South w Zimbabwe, niniejsze badanie miało na celu znalezienie odpowiedzi na postawione wyżej pytanie. Przyjęto metodologię eksploracyjną i zebrano dane od mieszkańców Mutasa South oraz od kluczowych informatorów z organizacji pozarządowych i Rady Okręgu Wiejskiego Mutasa. Z badania wynika, że ubóstwo przybiera tu różne formy. Środki ograniczania ubóstwa wdrażane na obszarze będącym przedmiotem badania obejmują pomoc żywnościową, edukacyjną i gotówkową, a także mikrofinansowanie i programy rolnicze. Skuteczność tych środków została zbadana na podstawie zakresu, w jakim programy obejmują wielorakie wymiary ubóstwa występujące w regionie Mutasa South. Jak stwierdzono, programy uwzględniają wszystkie wymiary ubóstwa, ale są też ich pewne aspekty, którym poświęca się mniej uwagi, stąd mają one tendencję do wykluczania niektórych ubogich z programów pomocowych.
