ADRA Zimbabwe implemented a three-month Community Managed Disaster Risk Reduction (CMDRR) project in Kanyemba ward, Mbire District (October 2 – December 31, 2017).

The CMDRR project sought to strengthen the resilience capacities of at-risk households to recover and adapt to the effects of shocks and stresses in a manner that protects livelihoods and recovery gains, and supports sustainable transformation.
