#ACTonDRMBill

#SONA2025, the 3rd session of the 10th Parliament, will #ACTonDRMBill Since September 2022, we have been lobbying for the finalization of Zimbabwe's Disaster Risk Management and Civil Protection Act Why DRR 📌building resilience 📌reduces existing risks

Fund Resilience, Not Disasters- the #IDRRD2025 theme Zimbabwe's outdated Civil Protection Act of 1989 is silent on resilience & can no longer meet today's climate & disaster challenges It's time to finalize the Disaster Risk Management & Civil Protection Bill #ACTonDRMBill

12 days left until the International Day for Disaster Reduction , themed 🌏FUNDING RESILIENCE, NOT DISASTER How can Zimbabwe promotes a culture of risk awareness and disaster reduction❓️

Mamiriro emwaka wemvura 2025-2026:

🛑 There’s no such thing as a natural disaster — disasters occur when risks are ignored. ⚡ Hazard – dangerous events 🏙️ Exposure – people/assets at risk 🧩 Vulnerability – conditions increasing harm 💡 Learn more 👉 ow.ly/TUFM50WGzwh

Today #InternationalYouthDay, and our key demand to SADC Heads of States-45th SADC Summit, Madagascar (18 August 2025) Is to Strengthen Disaster Risk Governance given the region's vulnerability to transboundary risk #ItsAllAboutGovernance @ParliamentZim @SADC_News

Five women from Chipinge and Binga are standing up for their rights amid climate challenges! With support from @ActionAidZim, they conducted a vital assessment on youth vulnerabilities & are demanding real change. Read the full story: tinyurl.com/425fdvrp

@zimyouthcouncil @myedvt Can you hold a zoom on this? Yes you have a mandate under the ZYC Act, and what does it mean, in the context of PVO?

𝑳𝒊𝒎𝒊𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒇𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒐𝒓 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒇𝒖𝒏𝒅⁉️ @ParliamentZim expressed concern over delays in finalizing the Disaster Risk Management & Civil Protection Bill due to funding shortfalls with only $20,000 of the needed $60,000 secured #ACTonDRM @AyodeleOdusola

We should promote the use of technology in spatial planning to avoid the settling of people in areas that are prone to flooding, etc. #ACTonDRMBill #YouthVulnerability

When people feel heard, they listen and when they trust the message, they ACT. Don't just consult reduce #YouthVulnerability

As climate changes continue to shift our known hazard profiles #ActOnDRM ✨️ Let's ensure our messages are creative, emotional, cultural & human ✨️ Use formats people love: spoken word, social media, story-telling, community radio ✨️communication must be a conversation

Without robust and inclusive disaster risk management process. Marginalized communities will remain vulnerable to climate-related risks. #YouthVulnerability #ACTonDRM

The government should leverage technology to improve DRM. #YouthVulnerability #ACTonDRMBill

💡The #ActOnDRM goal is to increase women's participation in disaster risk governance, but often note 🔷️At international & regional forums, official government delegations are still overwhelmingly composed of men Let's bring the gap @activista_zim @gp_zim

Young people are usually the responders, innovators, and changemakers. From floods to pandemics, youth have stepped up, spoken out, and mobilized their communities. Let’s invest in youth-led solutions, protect their rights #ActOnDRM #YouthInAction #YouthVulnerability @gp_zim

Invest in our Meteorological Services and modernize it with drones etc #YouthVulnerability #ActOnDRM

Disasters affect everyone differently. Women & girls often face heightened risks—violence, loss of livelihood. Yet their voices are sidelined in response efforts. Gender justice must be central to disaster planning. #GenderJustice #Resilience @gp_zim @Narshon_Kohlo @diana_harawa

Rights matter in DRM. It is important to support rights awareness campaigns to mitigate abuse, especially of #YouthVulnerability

I'm all for youth inclusion in all spaces. The call to meaningfully include you might people in the Disaster Risk Reduction is a genuine one. The disasters affect us, too. Hence, we must also be consulted. @ACTonDRMBill #ACTONDRR
