520 3 _aAs the distribution of social welfare services in Zimbabwe continues to be engulfed by corrupt tendencies, social work in Zimbabwe is left in the face of a resurging professional challenge which needs social work intervention for it to be addressed. The thrust of this article was to establish both individual and macro factors that nourish corrupt tendencies and behaviours among key stakeholders in the delivery of social welfare services. Utilising in-depth and key informant interviews, the study chronicled that corruption in the delivery of social welfare services is largely driven by poverty, political intervention and lack of Ubuntu spirit. The study also benefited from maximum utilisation of relevant literature which buttressed input from participants in understanding sustainable measures that are worth pursuing in remedying corruption in the delivery of social welfare services. The article concludes by encouraging monitoring and evaluation and awareness raising among other factors as key in countering corruption in social welfare services.
