THE ZIMBABWE
PEACE PROJECT
Zimbabweans
no longer
afford dignity.
And it is a key
human rights
issue.
Pensioners,
and
the
vulnerable
communities that need social protection
continue to suffer in abject poverty.
The ordinary worker has been reduced to
being a beggar.
Zimbabweans no longer afford dignity.
And it is a key human rights issue.
In addition to this, the country’s health
institutions have remained neglected and
incapacitated. Throughout the month, ZPP
has documented stories of people who
had to watch their relatives die because
health institutions did not have capacity to
treat them while some had to watch their
relatives breathe their last as they sought
to get corona virus testing demanded by
some institutions before admission.
Government has the obligation to provide
social protection to all citizens and the ZPP
continues to call on the administration to
reconsider its approach to the economic
and social issues affecting Zimbabwe, and
to realise that economic development only
happens if government is prepared to
invest in the social protection of the very
valuable human resources.
