ONC Project: Prevention- 28 August 2026. ALFA hosted an inclusive health Awareness Campaign at Jaravaza and Chemumvuri Shopping Centres, in partnership with the Young People’s Network on Health and Well-being (YPNHW), Victim Friendly Unit (VFU) and Zimbabwe Health Interventions (ZHI). The campaign reached 70 community members, including 40 young people, and focused on raising awareness about the dangers of drug and substance abuse, ways of preventing drug use, positive parenting, child protection, SGBV prevention and sexual and reproductive health. Community members were engaged on the effects of drug use, peer pressure, the importance of reporting abuse early and supporting young people struggling with substance use instead of rejecting them. Male and female condom demonstrations were also conducted, and condoms were left at both shopping centres to improve access within the community. The campaign highlighted the importance of working together as stakeholders, empowering young people, strengthening family support and bringing essential services closer to communities to promote safer and healthier communities.
