About us
World Vision began operating in Zimbabwe in 1973, primarily providing assistance to children’s homes and offering relief to Zimbabweans in camps and institutions. After independence in 1980, our focus changed to rehabilitation and small-scale development programmes as the country absorbed exiled and previously displaced groups. Over the years, World Vision has transitioned to large-scale community development programmes designed to address community needs, with a specific focus on children, using participatory planning approaches and ensuring sustainability. Today, World Vision is the largest humanitarian organisation in Zimbabwe, operating relief and development projects across the country benefitting more than 2 million people each year.

During the current period of #ElNino-induced drought, there is a shortage of food, leaving children aged 0-59 months vulnerable to acute malnutrition. As an organisation, with support from UNICEF, United Nations Central Emergency Response Fund, and USAID, we are supporting the Ministry of Health and Child Care to screen children in 6 districts. To date, more than 61K children have been screened for acute malnutrition, enhancing community-based surveillance for early detection and treatment of children with wasting.

From promoting good hygiene to fostering leadership and teamwork, health clubs are making a difference.

Zimbabwe, like several other Sub-Saharan countries, is currently experiencing an #ElNino-induced drought. World Vision is implementing the USAID - Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance-funded Protection and Nutrition Emergency Response (PRONE) for Mudzi project, supporting the Ministry of Health and Child Care to effectively manage acute malnutrition in children under the age of 5. This achievement has been made possible through several key interventions: 1. Conducting Integrated Active Screening: This approach has allowed for the early detection of malnutrition cases, ensuring timely interventions. 2. Modified PD Hearth Training for Community Health Workers (CHWs): By equipping CHWs with the skills needed to identify and manage malnutrition, the project has strengthened community-level responses. 3. Strengthening the Community Malnutrition Referral System: The project has also enhanced the referral system, ensuring that cases of Moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM) and Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) are tracked, followed up, and referred to health facilities for appropriate care.

"Unlocking Knowledge, Opening Doors to the Future!" Yesterday, the enthusiastic participants of the USAID Zimbabwe funded-Digital Skills training had an inspiring day exploring local income-generating projects, including mushroom farming, greenhouse farming, and plastic waste recycling, all supported by USAID Zimbabwe as part of the Urban Resilience Program. These innovative ventures provided a valuable opportunity for the young people to network, learn, and explore potential business prospects. It was an excellent opportunity for them to witness real-world applications and establish connections that could lead to future opportunities.
