Campaign Story

Seek to provide drought relief for 225 rural households in Shurugwi, Zimbabwe in response to the El Nino induced drought. The households, who depend on rain fed agriculture for livelihoods, face severe food insecurity. Thus, the project will provide food aid and cash transfers to the households in line with Women in Communities Zimbabwe’s Strategic Plan (DRM priority focus) and the SPHERE Core Humanitarian Standard.

2 boreholes will be drilled to alleviate drought associated water poverty for the households. Already trained Community Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) Champions will actively participate in the project as village focal persons.
