About ZPP
ZPP is a peace-promoting organisation that uses human rights lenses
in peacebuilding work having established that the deprivation and
abuse of human rights poses the greatest threat to peace in Zimbabwe.
The organisation was established in 2000 as a project of civil society
and faith-based groups in response to the violence and human rights
violations that characterised the political landscape of the time. These
organisations were the Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace
(CCJP), the Evangelical Fellowship of Zimbabwe (EFZ), the Zimbabwe
Council of Churches, Zimbabwe Human Rights Association
(ZIMRIGHTS), Zimbabwe Election Support Network (ZESN), Civic
Education Network Trust (CIVNET), Counselling Services Unit (CSU),
Zimbabwe Liberators Platform (ZLP) and Non-Violent Action and
Strategies for Social Change (NOVASC).
Over the years, the ZPP network of members has evolved as the
network welcomed new member organisations while others have
developed new thematic interests or have ceased to exist. Current
member organisations are the Catholic Commission of Justice and
Peace (CCJPZ), Evangelical Fellowship of Zimbabwe (EFZ), Zimbabwe
Council of Churches (ZCC), Zimbabwe Human Rights Association
(ZIMRIGHTS), Counselling Services Unit (CSU), Women and Law
Southern Africa (WLSA), National Association for the Care of the
Handicapped (NASCOH) and the Women’s Coalition of Zimbabwe
(WCoZ).
