Caritas Zimbabwe

Caritas Zimbabwe, which is also known as the Catholic Development Commission (CADEC), was founded in 1972 to aid development and respond to unrest and conflict.

And other Caritas members working on the ground in Zimbabwe:

  • CAFOD/Caritas England and Wales
    CAFOD has supported programmes in Zimbabwe for almost 30 years - where more than 80 per cent of the workforce does not have a regular job.
  • CRS/Caritas USA
    CRS began its Zimbabwe country program in 1989 at the invitation of the Zimbabwe Catholic Bishops' Conference, which was concerned about the grave impact of HIV and AIDS on communities.
  • Trocaire/Caritas Ireland
    Trócaire's emergency response involves providing food for at-risk families as well as training in farming methods so people can grow their own food.
