Diocese Of Mutare Community Care Programme - DOMCCP

Clean water is coming closer to both the school and the community at Bvirindi 💧🏫

This project was designed to make a real difference—not just for learners, but for the wider community too.

Here’s the progress so far:

Solar panels are installed ☀️
The old bush pump has been removed
A new water tank is now in place
Tap stands have been installed at the school and outside for community use

Water is not yet flowing, but everything is now set up 🙌

Soon, learners, teachers, and community members will have easy access to clean water right where they need it 💙

This means better hygiene, less time spent fetching water, and a healthier environment for everyone.

A big thank you to Misean Cara for supporting this important work.

We can’t wait to see the first water flowing!

Listening. Engaging. Building together. 🤝

Our work in Bvirindi goes beyond infrastructure — it’s about engaging with the community to ensure sustainable solutions.

These conversations and collaborations are key to long-term impact.Misean Cara

Bringing clean water closer to Bvirindi 💧

In Bvirindi, the water source is located far from the school — making daily access a challenge for students and staff.

We are currently working on a solar-powered system that will pump water from the borehole directly to the school, improving access for the entire community.

What makes this project even more meaningful is the active involvement of the community every step of the way 👏

This is progress in action — and we’re excited to share the journey.
With Support from Misean Cara

Last week, our trained community facilitators convened a Women’s Safe Space session with women in the community in Dora Ward 35.

The session created a safe, respectful, and supportive environment where every woman could freely share her experiences. Participants reflected on moments when they felt oppressed, discriminated against, exploited, or unheard.

Through open dialogue and collective reflection, the women explored practical ways to promote respect, inclusion, and meaningful participation within their families, churches, and the wider community.

Safe spaces like these are vital in empowering women to find their voice, build confidence, and support one another in driving positive change.

Through the Masidama Project, DOMCCP continues to engage men as important partners in promoting gender equality 🤝

Our trained male facilitators recently led their first Men’s Safe Space sessions with participants from the Anglican and Roman Catholic churches.

The sessions created a space for open and honest conversations around gender roles, cultural beliefs, and traditions that shape how men and women are viewed in our communities.

Together, participants reflected on how some norms can contribute to inequality, and explored practical ways to promote respect, shared decision-making, and equal opportunities in their families and communities 💬

Men’s Safe Spaces are helping to build understanding, challenge harmful beliefs, and encourage men to become allies in supporting women’s leadership and participation.

Last week, our trained community facilitators hosted a powerful women’s safe space session with women from the Roman Catholic Church in Sakubva 💬

The session provided a safe and supportive environment where women could openly share their experiences and reflect on moments when they felt unheard, discriminated against, or excluded.

Together, the women discussed practical ways to promote respect, inclusion, and meaningful participation in their families, churches, and communities 🤝

Safe spaces like these are important in empowering women to speak up, build confidence, and support each other in creating positive change 💪

On the 16th and 17th of July, DOMCCP attended an exciting NGO Expo hosted by National Association of Non-Governmental Organisations (NANGO) at Mikeles Park 🎉

The expo gave us a wonderful opportunity to meet and interact with other organisations, share what we do, and learn about the amazing work happening across Mutare.

We were especially happy to engage with community members who visited our stand to find out more about our programmes and how we are working to improve lives at grassroots level 💬

We also gained valuable knowledge from sessions on:
✔️ Banking
✔️ Cybersecurity
✔️ Strengthening organisations

Thank you to NANGO for creating such an important platform for learning, networking, and collaboration 🤝

Strengthening partnerships for stronger communities 🤝

On Monday 14July, DOMCCP was honoured to host Trócaire’s Country Management Team for a support and engagement visit.

The visit created a valuable space to:
✔️ Share our work and achievements
✔️ Reflect on progress and challenges
✔️ Explore future collaboration opportunities

We also provided an update on the Masidama project, which focuses on strengthening women’s leadership within our communities.

The discussions were insightful and encouraging, reaffirming the strong partnership between DOMCCP and Trócaire. Together, we continue working towards building resilient, empowered communities. Trocaire
