Deaf Zimbabwe Trust

Deaf Zimbabwe Trust DZT is a voluntary organization advancing the rights and interest of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing It is governed by a board and has paid staff and volunteers.

Deaf Zimbabwe Trust is a voluntary organization advancing the rights and interest of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH) people in Zimbabwe. It was formed in 2012 by parents of Deaf children and began operations as registered Trust in 2013. Initially the organisation was formed to advance the rights of Deaf children. After wide consultation, the leadership of DZT realised that Deaf adults had a lot of challenges and very little was being done to help them achieve their potential. As a result of this realisation, Deaf Zimbabwe Trust reconfigured its activities to include all the Deaf in Zimbabwe. DZT is a member of National Association of Societies for the Care of the Handicapped (NASCOH), Education Coalition of Zimbabwe (ECOZI) and the Zimbabwe National Council for the Welfare of Children (ZNCWC).

Human Rights Day Message

Theme: Human Rights, Our Everyday Essentials

Today we celebrate Human Rights Day by recognising that human rights are not abstract—they are the daily essentials that protect dignity, equality and inclusion for every person, including persons with disabilities.

Access to communication, education, healthcare, mobility, and participation in community life are not privileges. They are rights.

Deaf Zimbabwe Trust reaffirms that disability inclusion is a human right. When we protect these rights, we strengthen communities and ensure no one is left behind.

Human rights are our everyday essentials — for everyone, without exception.

Community Forum on Inclusive Education for Children with Disabilities in Tafara.

Deaf Zimbabwe Trust, in collaboration with JF Kapnek Zimbabwe and supported by Liliane Fonds, organized a community forum on inclusive education for children with disabilities in Tafara.

The forum brought together parents of children with disabilities, creating a platform for critical dialogue and sharing essential firsthand experiences of school challenges. This information is essential for informing targeted advocacy and achieving equitable access to quality learning for all children.

Deaf Zimbabwe Trust remains committed to working with stakeholders, including parents, schools, and communities, to remove barriers and achieve a fully inclusive education system across Zimbabwe.
