Diasporans Donate Medical Equipment To Local Hospitals

The Zimbabwe Life Project (ZLP) on Monday donated equipment and surgical consumables to a number of Zimbabwean hospitals.

Speaking to the media after meeting members of ZLP who were being led by the chief executive officer  Lucia Vambe, Special Advisor to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Trade, Stuart Comberbach, said:

As you know there is a diaspora directorate being set up in this Ministry now and right from the beginning of the new dispensation, President Mnangagwa has made it a real priority for our embassies and government to reach out to the diaspora wherever they are to encourage them to use their talent, skills and expertise to assist Zimbabwe as we rebuild our economy.

ZLP is a diaspora philanthropic group of 26 health professionals based in the United Kingdom. The group is in Zimbabwe on a two-week tour to share knowledge and experience with mental health staff in the country.
