Zimbabwe Watch aims to advance, promote and protect human rights in Zimbabwe and to strive towards democratic consolidation in Zimbabwe. The resolution of the crisis in Zimbabwe must be led by Zimbabweans themselves.
To actively contribute to their own future however, they need an enabling environment at local, national and international level. At the core of such an enabling environment stand civic and political rights such as freedom of speech, media and association. Zimbabweans must be able to organise freely and have access to a free media and full information, so that they can choose their leaders and hold them to account. International and regional solidarity and support are part and parcel of achieving such an enabling environment.
