Firstly, it forms an important part of the research carried out by the Society in connection with the management of elephants and their habitats in the Guruve and Muzarabani districts of Zimbabwe, and the Magoe district of Mozambique. It therefore has implications, not only for natural resource management in these districts, but also for the transboundary management of these resources. Secondly, it relates closely to the work being carried out by the Society and the Biodiversity Foundation for Africa on the identification of community-based mechanisms FOREWORD for the conservation of biodiversity in settled lands. Thirdly, it represents a critically important contribution to the Zambezi Basin Initiative for Biodiversity Conservation (ZBI), a collaboration between the Society, the Biodiversity Foundation for Africa, and Fauna & Flora International.

    Political Violence Report November 2001

    ZIMBABWE HUMAN RIGHTS NGO FORUM POLITICAL VIOLENCE REPORT NOVEMBER 2001 December 2001 A report by the Zimbabwe Human Rights NGO Forum Summary Attacks on farm workers residing on invaded farms, ongoing since the end of February 2000, were reported to the Human Rights Forum in November. Since January this year, more than 70 000 farm workers have been displaced and countless others have been beaten and tortured whilst others lost their homes in arson attacks. Once again the ZRP was been found wanting in its protection and reaction to violations concerning farm workers and MDC supporters. In one recorded case, policemen in Kadoma arrived at the local Zanu-PF offices and witnessed the torture of two MDC members but left without rendering assistance. However 14 MDC members were arrested for the murder of Bulawayo war veteran’s chairman, Cain Nkala. In Harare members of the ZRP unlawfully arrested and tortured two MDC officials from Zengeza, accusing them of having had some involvement in Cain Nkala’s murder, despite their being in Harare at the time. The two were released without being charged having been interrogated about the operations of their party. Six deaths were recorded in November. A list of all deaths that have been reported since January 2001 is given at the end of the report. November 2001 Totals 2 Cumulative Totals January-November 2001 Sources: Amani Trust medical assessments, HR Forum legal statements, CFU reports and newspaper reports.

    DISASTER RISK MANAGEMENT A RESOURCE BOOK FOR EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IN ZIMBABWE PREPARED BY THE CIVIL PROTECTION ORGANISATION OF ZIMBABWE Empowered lives. Resilient nations. RESOURCE BOOK FOR DISASTER MANAGEMENT IN ZIMBABWE PRODUCED BY THE NATIONAL CIVIL PROTECTION ORGANIZATION IN ZIMBABWE FOREWORD International trends indicate that disasters are increasing in intensity, complexity and magnitude. Zimbabwe has not been spared from this trend. It is against this background that the National Civil Protection Committee launched a strategy aimed at integrating emergency preparedness and disaster risk reduction into the education system of Zimbabwe in July 2003. The strategy seeks to mitigate against the effects of both natural and human induced emergencies on the education system thus contribute to improved awareness of disaster risk and readiness for emergencies in the country in general. A three pronged approach was adopted to ensure implementation of the strategy namely, disaster risk reduction initiatives in education infrastructure, development of an emergency preparedness and response manual for the education sector and inclusion of disaster risk management in education curricula together with the production of requisite reference materials. This book is a reference resource for use by teachers and educators. The book is a rich source of practical information drawn from scientific literature, disaster databases and field experiences from Zimbabwe. Teachers and educators should find this resource book useful in creating innovative training programs. These training programs should contribute to long term enhancement of national capacity for disaster risk management in this country. We applaud this remarkable achievement more so as disaster risk reduction is recognised as an intrinsic element of the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005 – 2015).

  • The Role of Militia Groups in Maintaining Zanupf's Political Power

    The Role of Militia Groups in Maintaining Zanupf's Political Power

    The role of militia groups in maintaining ZanuPF’s political power. A P Reeler Former Director, Amani Trust Member of Executive Committee, International Rehabilitation Council for Torture Victims. March 2003 2 1. Background The violence that has afflicted Zimbabwe since the Constitutional referendum has received considerable international attention, mainly due to remarkable documentation from the press, the media and human rights groups. The findings of the human rights groups, and particularly the Zimbabwe Human Rights NGO Forum, have additionally been corroborated by a number of the reports from international human rights groups. Finally, there has also been corroboration from a large number of election observer groups. However, despite sustained international pressure, organised violence and torture continues in Zimbabwe, and the violence associated with militia groups continues today: there are very recent reports of the youth militia – the “green bombers1” – operating with apparent impunity in Kuwadzana in Harare2, as well as in Bulawayo3. The problem of the militia is however beginning to cause concern, as is evidenced by the recent statement of the South African Catholic Bishops Conference urging President Thabo Mbeki to intervene in Zimbabwe over the militia, as well a recent story in the London Sunday Times4. The President and Government have made no credible attempt to end the violence, with the only defence being that this is either violence provoked by the original violence of the MDC and other groups, such as white commercial farmers, or that the violence is due to the frustrations expressed by ordinary Zimbabweans in their quest to acquire land that is rightfully theirs.
