Decentralization has the potential to
contribute to the democratization of society, promotion of
efficient delivery of public services, and bridging the gap
between the state and civic groups. It is the basis for
local self-government, which eventually leads to good
governance. In the context of Zimbabwe, civil society
organizations play a critical role in representing citizens
on social, political and economic issues. One clear example
of improved governance due to citizen involvement is the
case of the City of Harare Combined Residents Association (CHRA).
