Brief Description


The Government in collaboration with development partners and CSOs has established three one stop centres (OSCs) for survivors of GBV. The OSCs provide all key services required by a GBV survivor under one roof. Zimbabwe currently has eleven temporary shelters for survivors of GBV spread across both urban and rural areas, with the majority being in rural areas. Before these facilities are commissioned, they are inspected by the Anti-Domestic Violence Council which was reconstituted in 2017 to oversee the situation of domestic violence in the country.
