IMUNZI PROJECT

IMUNZI is a collaborative project between three partners: International Medical Cooperation Committee (IMCC), United Children of Africa (UNICA) and Zimbabwe Medical Student’s Association (ZIMSA). Since 2014, the project has worked towards lowering the prevalence of HIV/AIDS among youth in Zimbabwe. In its modified form, since 2019, it has become a double-pronged project that still emphasizes on HIV awareness but also pivots to introduce mental health disorders related to living with HIV. The project uses peer to peer education, boot camps, sports tournaments, workshops, essay competitions, arts tournaments and advocacy to reach the young people of Zimbabwe in an effort to promote good health and wellbeing of the youth.
