Support informal sector, Sadc urged

THE Southern Africa People Solidarity Network (SAPSN) has called on the Southern Africa Development Committee (Sadc) to urgently address barriers to economic growth that have hindered the success of the informal sector.

The call comes at a time when there has been an alarming rise in the number of people in the informal sector, with 70% of the population falling under this category.

Zimbabwe, however, recently made efforts to address the challenges faced by the informal sector.
