SWET is participating in a two-day training for Board members and Directors focused on organisational governance, effective leadership, accountability and strong institutional systems.
For SWET, good governance goes beyond compliance. It is about ensuring that our leadership, structures and decision-making processes are ethical, accountable, transparent and aligned with the laws and regulatory requirements governing civil society organisations in Zimbabwe.
Governance is also the third pillar of SWET’s strategy, focused on strengthening our organisation and its structures so that we can effectively respond to an ever-changing environment and remain accountable to the women, girls and communities we serve.
We sincerely appreciate COSPE Southern Africa for supporting this important capacity-strengthening initiative and investing in stronger, more accountable civil society organisations.

Sprout Women Empowerment Trust is participating in the PVO Regulations Sensitisation Workshop happening today in Harare under the Talk To Your Regulator (T2R) Initiative.
The session is providing important clarity on SI 97 of 2026, including PVO registration requirements, governance structures and constitutional provisions. This is critical to our work as a civil society organisation, particularly in strengthening compliance, governance and effective engagement with the regulator.
We appreciate NANGO Zimbabwe with the support of COSPE Southern Africa , for facilitating this important engagement and creating space for dialogue between civil society and the regulator.

Data Protection Compliance: Strengthening Our Systems
