To inspire children and young people to have a voice, space and capacity to meaningfully and effectively participate in policy and governance processes at national and regional level. The organisation operates at national level and has alliances at sub-regional level covering Central, Eastern and Southern African countries. The organisation fights for children and young people’s rights, and help them fulfill their potential. We work to inspire breakthroughs in the way Zimbabwe treats children and young people and strive to achieve lasting changes in the lives of children and young people in Zimbabwe. RNCYPT’s work is guided by several core values that are accountability, integrity, partnership, reliability and teamwork. RNCYPT thrives to ensure that there is social inclusion of children and young people and fight for their participation in governance processes. RNCYPT also has a very key important element on gender equality, its programmes seeks to ensure that girls and young women are awarded the opportunity to develop and realize their full potential that is through social, economic and political empowerment. The organisation advances the rights of girls and women and ensures that all forms of violence, discrimination and oppression against girls and young women is eliminated.

Happening Now!

RNCYPT is participating in the stakeholder planning meeting for the implementation of the Multi-Sectoral Framework on the Prevention and Management of Adolescent Pregnancies in Zimbabwe.
The focus is on moving the Framework from policy on paper to action. Stakeholders are putting their heads together to review existing gaps and map the way forward, exploring practical approaches to prevention, management, coordination and accountability.
The goal is clear: ensuring the Framework translates into meaningful action and better outcomes for adolescents across Zimbabwe.

Through the Youth for Climate Action Now (YCAN) programme, children from different schools in kadoma came together to learn, share ideas, and take action on climate issues affecting their communities.

From understanding how climate change impacts their rights to speaking up, advocating for solutions, and holding leaders accountable, these young changemakers are proving that age is no barrier to creating a better future.

RNCYPT was proud to participate in the MenEngage Africa SRHR Learning and Exchange Symposium in Mombasa, Kenya, joining partners, activists, practitioners and movements from across Africa to learn, exchange experiences and strengthen collective action for sexual and reproductive health and rights.

A highlight for us was having our Executive Director, Felicia Mangwende, present an abstract, “From Passive Recipients to Architects of Change: Girl-Led Accountability as a Model for SRHR Advocacy in Rural Zimbabwe.” The presentation explored what happens when girls move beyond being recipients of information and become advocates, questioners and accountability actors using their voices, lived experiences and evidence to engage decision-makers and influence change.

Beyond the presentation, the symposium provided a valuable space to connect, learn from other movements, exchange approaches and reflect on how we can continue strengthening gender-transformative and girl-led approaches to SRHR in Zimbabwe and across the region.

We leave Mombasa reminded that whether we are talking about girls, young people, women, men or communities, advancing SRHR for all requires more than giving people a voice. It requires creating systems that listen to those voices, respond to their realities and remain accountable for change.

📍 Happening Now

RNCYPT is participating in the Capacity Strengthening Workshop on Women Rights Organisations (WRO) Engagement with the International Human Rights Machinery hosted WCOZ, a platform dedicated to strengthening the capacity of organisations to effectively engage with regional and international human rights mechanisms.

At RNCYPT, we recognise that the communities we work with trust us to amplify their voices and advocate for solutions to the challenges they continue to face. That trust calls on us to continuously strengthen our knowledge, step beyond our comfort zones, and explore innovative avenues for advancing the rights of women and girls we work with.

This workshop provides an opportunity to build practical skills in advocacy, reporting, monitoring, and follow-up while learning how to strategically utilise accessible opportunities and existing human rights mechanisms to drive meaningful change. It is a reminder that impactful advocacy is not always about using complex language, but about effectively using the tools and opportunities available to influence policy, promote accountability, and ensure that community voices are heard.

At RNCYPT, we remain committed to learning, growing, and strengthening our advocacy so that the rights and aspirations of women, girls, and young people are translated into meaningful action.

Young people are leading Kadoma's climate future.

Our follow-up ECR advocacy capacity-building workshop gave children and young people the opportunity to reflect on how they're applying previous training to influence policy and take action on the environmental challenges affecting their
communities.

With continued support from Terre des Hommes- Africa they are turning knowledge into action and leading the charge for a more climate-resilient Kadoma. 💚

As we wrapped up our final Binti Shupavu session for the term, we took a moment to celebrate the incredible girls who have continued to show up, learn, and grow. While this may have been our last session for now, it is certainly not goodbye. It is simply the end of one chapter as we look forward to the next.

We deeply appreciate every girl who dedicated her time to attend the sessions, even when life presented other demands. Your commitment to learning, building confidence, and supporting one another has been truly inspiring.

This term has been filled with growth, laughter, new skills, and meaningful conversations. It has reminded us that commitment cannot be forced or bought, it comes from within. The resilience, consistency, and enthusiasm you have shown make us proud, and we cannot wait to continue this journey together in the next term.

Thank you, girls, for choosing to invest in yourselves. The future is brighter because of you. 💜

A long walk should never stand between a girl and her future. 🚶🏾‍♀️🎒

For many rural girls, accessing education means walking for hours each day, often risking their safety, arriving late, or dropping out altogether. No child should have to choose between their safety, their time, and their education.

Together, we can change the journey.
