Your Rights, Your Voice, Your Power

Every stage of life is tied to recognition by government institutions. This is not simply paperwork, it is the state confirming your human rights in practical terms.


  • Right to Identity: Your birth is officially acknowledged with a birth certificate. Without it, a child may struggle to access school, healthcare, or social protection. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (Article 6-7) and the Constitution of Zimbabwe (Section 35) both affirm this right to legal recognition.

  • Right to Education: You are certified as educated through school certificates. Education is a fundamental right under Section 75 of the Constitution, and government ensures it is structured, recognized, and valued.

  • Right to Work and Enterprise: Running a business requires a certificate of incorporation. This is part of how the state regulates and supports economic activity, linking to the right to work and freedom of economic participation (Section 64).

  • Right to Family: A marriage becomes legally binding with a marriage certificate. This protects spouses and children, aligning with Section 78 of the Constitution, which guarantees the right to marry and found a family.

  • Right to Property: Ownership of land and property is secured through title deeds. This confirms Section 71, which guarantees the right to property, protecting citizens from arbitrary loss.

  • Freedom of Movement: Driving requires a license and registration. This upholds order and safety while linking to the right to freedom of movement (Section 66).

  • Right to Fair Taxation: Paying taxes ensures shared responsibility for public services. This reflects the principle of social and economic justice (Section 13), where everyone contributes to the collective good.

  • Right to Dignity in Death: Even death is formally recognized through a death certificate, ensuring dignity for families and legal closure. This reflects Section 51, which protects the right to dignity.

Human Rights and Participation

From birth to death, government recognition is woven into our lives. These processes are not barriers, they are frameworks to protect and uphold human rights. Because government plays a central role, it is important for every citizen to participate in shaping it.

The right to vote (Section 67) is one of the strongest tools citizens have to make sure these systems work fairly, transparently, and in service of everyone. Human rights are not distant theories, they are the daily realities that govern whether you can learn, work, marry, own, move, earn, and live with dignity.

The Call to Action

Being part of decision-making is not confrontation, it is partnership. By engaging in processes such as voting, we help strengthen the very structures that safeguard our rights.

Be informed. Be involved. Protect your rights. Shape Zimbabwe’s future.

We are Total Together

The Great African Exposure Visit-My Journey 'Tyrone Havnar'`

Many young people's, learning is trapped within classroom walls, blocked by poverty, isolation, or lack of opportunity. Imagine how many dreams that NEVER saw the light of day because one child failed to attend school.  Zimbabwe-Where it began I founded I Reach Out My Hand Africa (IROMHA)  in 2009, thats over 14 years ago, and for all those years I have been its backbone, carrying it forward, funding it out of my own pocket and refusing to let the vision die. This work is never just a project for me; it was born from my own scars. As a child, I knew what it meant to sit at home because school fees was not paid. I knew the sting of being bright but blocked by poverty. I knew what it felt like to watch opportunities slip away simply because of circumstances beyond my control. That pain shaped me. It planted a fire in me to make sure that other children would not have to face the same struggles I did. The vision was always simple, yet powerful: Keep children in school by breaking...

The Boy Child, Seen: A Human Rights Wake-Up Call in Zimbabwe

Did you know many people in Zimbabwe fear talking about Human Righs as the feel its polical? polical disinterest zimbabwean youth We talk a lot about girls’ rights (and rightly so). But while we focus there, too many boys are slipping through the cracks quietly dropping out, working in hazardous jobs, self-medicating, and staying silent because “men do not cry.” This is not a culture war. It is a child rights issue. When our boys fall, our communities pay. The human rights baseline Zimbabwe’s Constitution is crystal clear. Section 56 guarantees equality and non-discrimination for everyone. Section 81 sets out children’s rights protection from economic and sexual exploitation, access to education, and the primacy of the child’s best interests in every decision. The Education Amendment Act (2020) also outlaws corporal punishment and bars exclusion for non-payment of fees or pregnancy. These are enforceable rights, not suggestions.
