What is your take on the ongoing demolition of tuckshops and other structures deemed illegal? Do you think the national clean-up exercise is fair, or is it hurting livelihoods? @bbmhlanga @ropamakumire @daddyhope @AdvDali_Mpofu @advocatemahere @ZimRightsMasvi2 @table_girls
When communities and local leaders speak, their voices matter! A councillor reflects on the work being done by Community Tolerance Reconciliation and Development (COTRAD) and its contribution to community development and accountability.
At COTRAD, we believe that meaningful change begins with community engagement, amplifying citizens’ voices, and working together to address the challenges affecting our communities. #CommunityDevelopment #Accountability #CitizenEngagement #CommunityVoices #SocialChange
Your vote matters. Your leadership matters. As COTRAD, we encourage all young people to: 1. INSPECT THE VOTERS ROLL @ZESN1
2. VERIFY YOUR DETAILS
3. PARTICIPATE AS CANDIDATES & VOTERS. Democracy works when YOU participate.#YouthInPolitics #Inspect @ercafrica @ZECzim @weleadteam
It's Monday a new week, a fresh opportunity. As we join forces to drive social change, may this week unlock greater impact, ignite stronger youth agency, and unleash bold, fearless leadership.

A future where generations of young people especially young women shape nations and push the limits of what is possible for humanity.

➡️ Genuine leaders celebrate their teams in victory and shoulder the burden in adversity. Leadership is not deserting your people when the storm hits. It is standing firm beside them, taking bold decisions. @zppINFO @CCMTZimbabwe @YetTrust @VisionAfricaZim @zrgtpeacebuild
Through our Sports for Peace Tournament, we harness sport to bring youth together, foster tolerance, cultivate teamwork, and instil discipline, respect, and peaceful resolution of differences.

YETT supported 4 young people from 2 partner organisations to attend the UN dialogue on invisible disabilities yesterday.
NASCOH highlighted that youth with disabilities are not passive recipients of aid, but innovators and active contributors to development.
As we wrap up another week, let’s take a moment to prioritise our health and wellbeing. This Pinktober, let’s stand together to raise breast cancer awareness, encourage early detection, and show love and support to everyone affected by the disease.

Happy New Week, Young Leaders! This is a new week to refocus, re-energize, and commit to your goals. At COTRAD, we partner with young people to advance social change through transformative leadership development, amplified youth agency, awareness raising, and movement building.
At COTRAD, we build powerful communities that advance power literacy, constitutional consciousness, freedom of expression, and amplify voices long ignored and invisible. We grow young leaders and fuel advocacy that puts youth at the forefront of social change.#YouthPower
