About 1 in 3 women have been abused in their lifetime. Violence against girls and women is a human right violation. Take part in ending this gender based violence. Inform, educate, share, protect and support in whatever way you can.

Zimbabwe has seen 38% of its targeted population vaccinated to date, with the aim of 60% herd immunity end of 2021, in efforts to support public health benefit there has been interferences with certain individual's rights.

These targets has also led to certain compulsory vaccinations also being effected by economic conditions through work some leading to a choice to resign if wanting to assert one's rights.

Human rights awareness is powerful, its enlightening and its necessary. It is not a waste of time, it is essential for people to understand how they must be treated and how they should treat others,

Human rights violations need to be answered with accountability, which then gives a commitment to better address them.

Accountability is a cornerstone of the human rights framework. The relationship between duty bearers, like the government, ministries etc. and rights holders must be governed by effective accountability measures.
