What We Do
Working as an organizer, coordinator, and advocate for Zimbabweans in the Diaspora, The Council strives to ensure a unity of effort in enhancing the development of Zimbabwe. The work of the council is carried out through working groups that consist of individuals and organizations, including community investment, emergency and special needs, public and public sector support, and technology improvement. These efforts enhance reconstruction efforts and have a long-term positive impact on the well-being of Zimbabweans in need.

Emergency Response & Special Needs
The emergency response and special needs program coordinates resources and works in cooperation with a number of local and international bodies to respond to emergencies and special needs. This program is activated in times of drought, famine, floods, and other emergencies in which the council plays a role to garner support on behalf of affected communities.
Private and Public Sector Support

The program links resources to needs and provides information on volunteer work opportunities and internships for students and professionals wishing to provide technical assistance to the private and public sector in Zimbabwe.
Technology Support
