ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The Forum and ZACRO acknowledges the assistance it received from its friends and partners in
compiling this report. Members of the Forum as well as institutions that are not members of the Forum
participated in the provision of data that forms this report. Several individuals gave testimonials
regarding their personal experiences during the #ZimShutDown protests of January 2019, as well as
information about what they witnessed. These accounts are captured in this report. The Forum is
indebted to those individuals. The Forum applauds the Secretariat for managing the process and
production of this report. All this work would not have been accomplished without the support from
our development partners who invest in the dignity of humanity, including the protection of children.
