IRC - International Rescue Committee (Zimbabwe)

The International Rescue Committee began to assist those facing persecution during the Second World War, moving to support emergency relief and refugee resettlement following the conflict’s end. Ever since, we have supported refugees from around the world - from Hungary, Vietnam and Angola to Syria, South Sudan and Myanmar.

Today, in over 40 countries, our dedicated teams do whatever it takes to help people affected by conflict and disaster. We ensure people not only survive but also recover and thrive, leading lives defined by the hope and dignity we all deserve.

The International Rescue Committee first began working in Zimbabwe in 2008, following a devastating cholera outbreak. We continue to provide vital support to Zimbabweans who are coping with natural disasters while struggling to recover from a decade-long economic decline.
