2.4.4 <strong>Trade</strong> <strong>Policy</strong> Instruments<br />
Various <strong>trade</strong> policy instruments will be adopted by Government<br />
to influence the direction and pattern of <strong>trade</strong> development.<br />
The instruments include Tariff-Based Instruments, Non-Tariff<br />
Measures, <strong>Trade</strong> Defence Mechanisms and <strong>Trade</strong> Development<br />
Instruments. The application of these instruments will be guided<br />
by the need to stimulate domestic production, promote valueadded<br />
exports and safeguard domestic industry and consumers<br />
against unfair <strong>trade</strong> practices. Zimbabwe will exercise <strong>trade</strong> policy<br />
options in line with regional and international obligations.<br />
2.4.5 Institutional Capacity Development<br />
For the <strong>National</strong> <strong>Trade</strong> <strong>Policy</strong> objectives to be realised, there is<br />
need to capacitate <strong>trade</strong>-related institutions in order for them to<br />
effectively and efficiently spearhead the process of re-orienting<br />
the economy towards an outward-looking system. Strengthening<br />
both the public and private sector in terms of human skills and<br />
institutional capacity development will enhance understanding<br />
of their critical role and contributions for <strong>trade</strong> development.<br />
Coordination within Government and between Government and<br />
the private sector on <strong>trade</strong> policy issues is vital in implementing<br />
the <strong>National</strong> <strong>Trade</strong> <strong>Policy</strong>.<br />
