Zimbabwe: ICRC supports impoverished rural populations
Years of economic and political strife have taken a severe toll on the people of Zimbabwe, particularly those living rural areas. The ICRC is providing the most vulnerable with food and household items, and helping improve access to water and health care facilities.

Dambamazura, Gokwe North district. Sixty-year-old Norman Fanyanana and his wife Anna wait patiently for their turn to receive ICRC assistance.

"I fled with my wife and six children when violence erupted in Dambamazura, where we have lived since 1981. We returned home only to find our cattle and crops – our livelihood – stolen. The roof over our house was damaged. Where do we start now?" laments Norman.
