Zimbabwe: Is it time to go home?
There are no accurate figures of the numbers involved, but it is estimated that more than three million people, from a population of 12 million, have left Zimbabwe in the past decade as inflation spiralled into the trillions of percent and unemployment rose to 94%.
Money earned by those in the diaspora - estimated to be in excess each year of Zimbabwe's best ever annual tobacco harvest, once the primary foreign currency earner - has been remitted to relatives at home.
