Ecosystem health is directly related to the economic development of the region and the quality of urban residents&#x2019; lives. It consists of the natural environment as well as layers of economic, social, cultural, political, and many more aspects. These wetlands are geographically isolated from other waterbodies, making their water sources runoff from upland habitats, groundwater seepage, and precipitation.

The city of Harare set itself the ambitious goal of being a world-class city by 2025 and vital to this goal is a transformation of the urban policy charting the way towards a more environmentally sustainable path. we use the following general ecosystem service framework to describe the flow of services from nature to society in roughly four components: the ecosystem (ecological conditions and processes creating potential services), ecosystem service supply (the processes and interactions through which nature and people realize benefits), the benefit (the results of these studies provide useful information to land managers and policy makers because they can recognize the relationships among urban ecosystems and the services which they provide to local inhabitants.
