Early Childhood Development Programme
CPS & partners seeks to strengthen the care environment of young children and building on current interventions.
Activities largely center on ensuring that there is provision to Early Childhood Development to young children in Matabeleland North and South throughUnited Children of Africa (UNICA), Uluntu Community Foundation & Christian Youth Volunteers Association Trust. In addition there are initiatives towards Early childhood Development in Harare
The project addresses the problem of the challenges in funding for ECD activities which then resulted in
inadequate play equipment and training materials for ECD centres
lack of structures or poor/dilapidated structures
caregivers not prioritizing ECD
Untrained ECD center facilitators among others

Child Protection
Society of Zimbabwe
Established in 1952, Child Protection Society (CPS) is a Not for profit Child Rights Organization based in Belvedere, Harare with operations across the Provinces of the country. We registered as a welfare organization in 1967 with the Department of Social Welfare. Its original thrust was in the care of children in difficult circumstances. For more than 50 years CPS has been promoting the well being of children, and protecting them from abuse, suffering and neglect.
