Mission and objectives

Simuka Africa Youth Association is a registered voluntary charitable organisation established in response to the poverty, gender-based violence, and limited access to educational programs impacting at-risk girls, marginalized youth & families in Zimbabwe. We have been in operation since 2006. Our SDG 1 - 6 initiatives and campaigns have brought recognition to the role education plays in tackling poverty and gender inequality. We seek to equip the youth of our country with tools to build a better world, establish careers and eliminate child marriage.

SimukaAfrica.org and its 34 Gallery Initiative currently seek highly motivated videographers for a three month duration. These roles are essential to maintaining high standards in our organization as it enters its 20th year of operation. Needed Video content will cover our SDG 2 Match A Meal Program, Climate Change Awareness, 2026 Art Therapy Open Calls Selections, Mental Health Arts Advocacy & Holiday Social Media Schedules.

Assignment context

Sustainable Development Goal 3 (SDG3) covers good health and well-being goals. This overall purpose is to ensure healthy living for the global population, encourage preventative care and promote well-being at all ages. SDG 3 goals address all major health priorities, including mental, reproductive, maternal and child health; communicable, non-communicable and environmental disease; universal health coverage; and access for all to safe, effective, quality and affordable medicines and vaccines. Our efforts through The 34 Gallery Initiative focus on the reduction of the global suicide rate, an increase in awareness of art therapy intervention models, elimination of mental health stigmas, and the continuation of the mental health dialogue beyond May’s Mental Health Awareness Month.

Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2) seeks to end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture. For Q4, Simuka Africa remains committed to informing the local and international populace regarding the severity of the El Nino and accompanying natural disasters expected through mid 2027. Our Match-A-Meal campaign is being revived to offset food insecurity in the local community regions.
