2010:

The Community Foundation for the Western Region of Zimbabwe is working on expanding its work and plans to include the ICDP principles in its Home-based Orphan Care Programme.  As the name implies, home based orphan care is providing a family support or community support system to orphans and vulnerable children to experience quality family life and all safety nets that family life provides.  Some of the activities include sensitization workshops on family life, Early Childhood Development, child care skills, learning exchange/sharing experiences, health clinics, children's rights, psychosocial support, resource mobilization for children's activities, child protection mainstreaming, child participation and capacity building of care givers. Currently the program is covering 9 districts but it is planned to extend it to all 25 districts in the western part of Zimbabwe. The intention is to employ the ICDP principles in achieving all the above stated activities.
