Disability Inclusive Disaster Risk Reduction (DiDRR) and Humanitarian Action
Zimbabwe has been prone to increased disasters such as cyclones, drought and floods including the COVID 19 pandemic. Vision Ability Zimbabwe collaborates with Civil Protection Unit in enhancing disability inclusive disaster risk reduction and promoting resilience to save lives and livelihoods. VAZ works with Organisations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs) to provide technical support and capacity building to increase disability inclusive dimensions in Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and resilience policy frameworks, systems, processes and tools. In light of the disasters, VAZ recognises the importance of meeting humanitarian needs and achieving sustainable development.
