Zimbabwe is gearing up to actively participate in the Global Week of Action Against Inequality, taking place from January 15th to the 22nd, 2022.
The Fight Inequality Alliance, in collaboration with nations worldwide, aims to combat escalating poverty levels and the widening wealth gap between the privileged few and the marginalized many.
During this pivotal week, citizens globally will stand in solidarity to emphasize the urgency of addressing the corrosive impacts of wealth concentration in the hands of unaccountable elites.
In Zimbabwe, the Fight Inequality Alliance will orchestrate diverse platforms, rallying citizens to contribute ideas and alternatives to policymakers and solution holders.
The focus will be on underscoring the critical need to confront deeply rooted inequality, a crucial step in realizing the constitutional promise of a dignified, just, and peaceful life for all Zimbabweans.
The stark reality of inequality is increasingly evident in Zimbabwe, woven into the fabric of daily life, dividing citizens along lines of class, region, gender, and generation.
Gender and regional inequalities, in particular, perpetuate poverty, relegating millions of Zimbabweans to economic hardship based on their place of birth or gender.
To secure a brighter future for Zimbabwe, there is a pressing need to challenge and transform the structural inequalities that have long been normalized in society.
