The ESN – SA Eminent Persons Observer Mission to the Zimbabwe 2018 Harmonized Elections
acknowledges the support provided by the host, the Zimbabwe Election Support Network
(ZESN) which is also the regional network’s secretariat for organizing and coordinating the
mission. Further, the Mission is grateful to the National Endowment for Democracy (NED)
and Open Society Initiative of Southern Africa (OSISA) for providing financial support for
the deployment of the Mission. Last but not least, the Mission acknowledges the support
rendered by the Zimbabwe Election Commission (ZEC) not only for the accreditation of mission
observers but for the information which enabled the observers to carry out their mandate.
