#CLAIM YOUR WATER RIGHTS 

The campaign works with Youth Water and Climate Justice Hubs in the dormitory town of Chitungwiza covering the 25 Wards to catalyze youth-led local actions to defend the right to water and sanitation, advance accountability for water rights based on the Town Master Plan developed by the Chitungwiza Local Authority and community engagement of local leaders (both Members of Parliament and Councillors) to improve water accessibility and availability. Human rights offer a legal framework for holding governments accountable. As rights holders, people can engage in the denial of these rights. As duty-bearers, governments must respect, protect, and fulfil human rights – the project builds and strengthens this relationship and interaction. The project champions section 77 of the Zimbabwean Constitution on the Right to Water and leverages the Availability, Accessibility, Acceptability, and Quality (AAAQ) Framework to advance the right to water Availability, Accessibility, Acceptability, and Quality. The campaign is driven by data, evidence, and the agency of locals
