their right to education is infringed. Women PWDs are thus deprived of their right to education
and this starts with segregation of PWDs in the enrollment process as they continue to face
stigmatization and discrimination from different community members.
The goal of the Zimbabwe Peace Project is advancing sustainable peace in Zimbabwe guided by a
vision where there is peace, justice, dignity and development for all. ZPP urges the Zimbabwean
government to act responsibly and take bold steps in line with the Constitution and international
treaties they are party to, to improve the situation of women. There is a need for urgent
interventions in areas of social inclusion for poor and marginalized communities including PWDs.
ZPP recommends the adoption of the following interventions to promote gender equality in
technology in Zimbabwe:
1. Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and relevant government ministries should drive the
narrative and start promoting cyber-tolerance and online etiquette where a lot of women
have been excluded
2. CSOs are urged to produce data that is gender desegregated to inform initiatives to improve
the lives of women and girls.
3. Citizens should be empowered to monitor the National Gender Policy's implementation
and make government accountable.
