Justice and equality for the vulnerable.
A Zimbabwean Private Voluntary Organisation working alongside children, women and rural households across Bulawayo, Matabeleland North and Matabeleland South.
Our mission
We promote, protect and improve access to socioeconomic services and human rights — in Bulawayo, Matabeleland North and Matabeleland South.
Trinity Project was founded in December 2008. In the years since, we have grown from a children’s welfare group into a holistic, rights-based community organisation — guided by participatory practice and the belief that dignity is not a privilege.
Vision
A community that respects human rights and holds itself accountable.

Our programmes
Five programmes, held as equals.
Five thematic areas, connected at the ground by the same rights-based, participatory practice.
01Child Rights Governance & Child Protection
Child rights cannot be fully realised without effective, transparent and accountable governance — so we work with duty-bearers, families and children to make rights real on the ground.
02Citizen Participation, Governance & Accountability
We support vulnerable communities to participate in the civic processes that affect them — turning policy commitments into lived outcomes.
03Health
Demand creation for the uptake of HIV, NCDs and sexual and reproductive health services — focused on adolescent girls, young women and young men.
04Women Empowerment & Gender Equality
Addressing sexual and gender-based violence, property grabbing and economic exclusion — and supporting women to claim inheritance, assets and leadership.
05Food & Livelihoods Security
Sustainable livelihoods through food production and healthy living — from nutrition gardens and small grains to WASH and women's economic strengthening.

Mandates, activities, target groups and registered partnerships for each of the five areas.
By the numbers
Quiet work, documented carefully.
Every number is a household reached, a committee trained, a right defended. We publish the small totals because they are the ones that add up.

Field note
Read the citizen-participation programme“When communities set the agenda, accountability stops being a word in a policy and starts being a schedule— with names, dates and a follow-up.”
How we work
Three approaches, held together.
- 01Rights-based advocacy
- Every intervention is grounded in international, continental and national human-rights frameworks — turning entitlements into lived reality.
- 02Asset-based community development
- We start with what communities already have — knowledge, networks, leadership — rather than what they lack.
- 03Participatory practice
- Communities help design, deliver and evaluate our work. Decisions are made with people, not for them.
