Restoration of Human Rights (ROHR) Zimbabwe

On 22^nd August, South East London branch held its general meeting at 375 Old Kent Road.  We had our customary opening prayer after which the floor was passed on to the branch chairperson Priscilla Chitsinde to recap the matters covered at the last branch meeting. This was for the benefit of those who were unable to attend. It was a recap on the human rights workshop that was held to supplement our members’ knowledge of the human rights framework to ensure that they are better equipped to represent the organisation and its objectives to the public.  She also touched on the importance and need for committed activism from our members.  

Through our chairperson, our branch was allocated a table to sell our wares at a church open day event. Further details concerning the event are available from Priscilla Chitsinde. Her contact details are available in Contacts section of the website. If any one has suggestions or would like to donate goods, which we can sell at this fundraising event please get in touch with any of the branch committee members listed on the contacts sections of this site under South East London Branch. We also had a discussion concerning the branch finances. This discussion reiterated the importance of establishing a self-sustaining fundraising campaign, which will finance operations towards the organisation’s objectives. There are various projects currently under discussion and the final details about the shortlisted ones will be made available soon.  

Members also expressed a desire to establish and incorporate mechanisms within the branch structure which assist people in times of need. Taking into account the social and economic challenges faced by most of our members, it was agreed to set up a network of services and information for reference when misfortune befalls anyone. If anyone has services to offer fellow members, please get in touch at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

As the branch matures, we hope to explore the possibility of setting up fully transparent financial structures to strengthen this aid arm.  

We also had a member design branch T-shirts. Several designs have been put forward and members will vote for the final design after which the T-shirts go into production. If anyone is interested in viewing and voting for a particular design get in touch at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it   

We resolved to continue our aggressive pursuit for publicity around the organisation’s cause and have revised our strategy to match our existing circumstances. We will be launching a branch e-newsletter soon. For those who would like to contribute articles get in touch at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
