With the advent of independence in Zimbabwe, the accent on water resource development has changed. The new Government's major thrust turned to the-rural areas and thus rural water supply development gained in importance. It is in this sector that outside foreign donor aid has played a major and significant role. While this paper describes the history of hydrology in Zimbabwe, it is of course difficult to divorce this from water resources development generally and indeed the author has not attempted to do this. .
