This report draws on findings from a survey of 1,000 Zimbabweans living in the United Kingdom and South Africa. It examines the education and employment skills base of respondents on arrival in either the United Kingdom or South Africa and their educational qualifications and employment at the time of the survey.

Transnational activities are explored, including the sending of economic and other remittances. There is a great deal of interest in participating in skills exchanges to Zimbabwe and/or to contributing to development-related activities. This report finds strong linkages with Zimbabwe and other Zimbabweans in the diaspora and an interest in return migration.
