Pathways Zimbabwe
Project Details
Catholic Relief Services Pathways Project funded by US government’s President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) supports Zimbabwe’s HIV response and child protection systems so that orphans and vulnerable children become healthy, stable, safe, and schooled. Pathways contributes to epidemic control through two main streams: DREAMS, aimed at preventing new HIV infections among adolescent girls and young women; and reaching other vulnerable children with prevention and other responses.
Pathways recognizes that children are part of a larger ecosystem including the family and communities who know the challenges children face and, therefore, hold the solutions to their development. The project also works with communities to strengthen their existing capabilities and support them in upholding the wellbeing of vulnerable children in their care.
