The series spotlights the Zimbabwe Alliance Initiative, which since 2010 has empowered a vibrant civil society through grants, convenings, capacity building, and technical support. Partners have fostered innovative, coordinated responses that amplify marginalised voices, mobilise citizens on critical national issues, and engage policymakers to build regional and international solidarity.
