WHO WE ARE
Regional Network of Children and Young People Trust (RNCYPT) is a child and youth focused organization founded in 2012. RNCYPT works in Zimbabwe and has alliances in Central, Eastern and Southern Africa. Our work focuses on transforming how societies treat children and young people; through ensuring that children and young people are active citizens who demand access to all their rights, hold duty bearers to account and mobilize communities for the respect, promotion and fulfillment of their rights.
