ABOUT
The Zimbabwe Qualitative Research Network is a network of over 200 social scientists conducting research in Zimbabwe, led by Constance Mackworth-Young and Faith Kandiye. The network connects social scientists from over a dozen higher education institutions and organisations in Zimbabwe and globally. We hold regular seminars to build cutting-edge methodological capacity, share new research, and build a strong network of social scientists in Zimbabwe.
