Abstract
The issue of land distribution in Zimbabwe remains complex before and after independence. The socio-economic imbalances can be traced from the pre-colonial era up to date. The paper seeks to show that the Zimbabwe Catholic Bishops Conference (ZCBS), Zimbabwe Council of Churches (ZCC) and civil society are integral in bringing political transformation and assist in solving some of the constitutional challenges Zimbabwe is facing today. The objectives of the paper are to address the socio-economic imbalances which have bedevilled the country and proffer effective mechanisms to manage these conflicts. The study used a descriptive survey approach. The research instruments used are interviews and unstructured questionnaires. Simple random sampling was used from fifteen leaders of both the Zimbabwe Catholic Bishops Conference and Zimbabwe Council of Churches in Harare. Ethical considerations have been made. The limitations are that some people may not be prepared to open for fear of victimisation from their respective institutions. The findings are that accountability need to be taken seriously. The recommendations are that churches need to take a prophetic role in addressing land imbalances.
