If this rate of growth had been maintained for the next 37 years, Zimbabwe would have in 2016 a GDP of US$52 billion. Instead it had a formal sector GDP of only US$14 billion, a cost of US$38 billion in lost growth. The population growth in 1980 was among the highest in Africa at about 3.5 per cent per annum, doubling every 21 years. Had this growth been maintained, the population would have been 31 million. Instead, as of 2018, it is about 13 million. The discrepancies were believed to be partly caused by death from starvation and disease, and partly due to decreased fertility. The life expectancy has halved, and deaths from politically motivated violence sponsored by the government exceed 200,000 since 1980.

For instance, it lacks the critical mass of researchers needed to trigger innovation. Although the infrastructure is in place to harness research and development to Zimbabwe's socio-economic development, universities and research institutions lack the financial and human resources to conduct research and the regulatory environment hampers the transfer of new technologies to the business sector. The economic crisis has precipitated an exodus of university students and professionals in key areas of expertise (medicine, engineering, etc.) that is of growing concern. More than 22% of Zimbabwean tertiary students were completing their degrees abroad in 2012, compared to a 4% average for sub-Saharan Africa as a whole. In 2012, there were 200 researchers (head count) employed in the public sector, one-quarter of whom were women. This is double the continental average (91 in 2013) but only one-quarter the researcher density of South Africa (818 per million inhabitants). The government has created the Zimbabwe Human Capital Website to provide information for the diaspora on job and investment opportunities in Zimbabwe.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_235-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-235"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>231<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-:1_236-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-236"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>232<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Scientific_publication_trends_in_SADC_countries,_2005-2014.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9f/Scientific_publication_trends_in_SADC_countries%2C_2005-2014.svg/220px-Scientific_publication_trends_in_SADC_countries%2C_2005-2014.svg.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="218" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9f/Scientific_publication_trends_in_SADC_countries%2C_2005-2014.svg/330px-Scientific_publication_trends_in_SADC_countries%2C_2005-2014.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9f/Scientific_publication_trends_in_SADC_countries%2C_2005-2014.svg/440px-Scientific_publication_trends_in_SADC_countries%2C_2005-2014.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="595" data-file-height="589" /></a><figcaption>Scientific publication trends in the most productive SADC countries, 2005–2014.
