dc.description.abstractThe aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of informal activities in alleviating household poverty in Chitungwiza high density suburb located close to Harare the capital city of Zimbabwe. Many households are vulnerable to poverty; therefore, they are embarking on informal activities as sources of livelihoods. The Sustainable Livelihood Approach and Resilience theory were used as theoretical frameworks that underpin this study. The triangulation approach of both qualitative and quantitative was used in soliciting data. Questionnaire and interview guides were instruments used in collecting data from a sample of 133 informal entrepreneurs and six key informants (social workers, municipal officials and community development practitioner) from Chitungwiza Municipality.
