Abstract

The protection and enjoyment of rights of persons living with mental disabilities in Zimbabwe remains of paramount importance. Therefore, it becomes imperative to interrogate the existing legal framework and the reciprocal expectations of implementation of the existing legal framework for the full realisation of the rights of persons with disabilities. Such an endeavour obligates the assessment of the extant legal frameworks, seeking to understand whether the scope of application and utility is more of substance than form. By that, the legal framework ought to avail tangible results as far as rights enjoyment are concerned
