This child safeguarding policy articulates ZNCWC’s commitment to child safeguarding, child protection, and its zero tolerance approach to all forms of child abuse. ZNCWC takes its responsibility very seriously with regards protecting children from harm, abuse, exploitation and neglect in any form. ZNCWC’s functions in this regard are underpinned by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child (ACRWC), the Children’s Act and the national legal framework of Zimbabwe that protects the rights and ensures the welfare of children.
