Fund Management (2)
The LRF continued as Fund Managers for the Judicial Service Commission Strategic Plan
project funded by Danida (US$15.7m). The project involves the construction of 22 courts
across the country, computerisation and case flow management within the JSC, training and
staff development, development of training material and combating corruption. Although
Denmark has sadly signalled its withdrawal from Zimbabwe, the legacy of this project in
improving the justice delivery system will continue and the LRF has been proud to contribute
to its success.
BOARD and STAFF (1)
The Trustees have continued to volunteer their services, providing guidance and support
during the year. The full Board met quarterly to consider the recommendations from the four
specialist committees – Finance, Risk and Audit; Human Resources; Public Interest /
Advocacy; and Publications.
Mrs Gloria Zvaravanhu retired from the Board in February 2016 having provided valuable
service as Chair of the Finance, Risk and Audit Committee. The Board was pleased to
welcome two new members, both lawyers in private practice, Mr Mark Warhurst, who joined
the Board in July 2015 and Mr Tinoziva Bere in June 2016.
The Board of Trustees commends the loyalty of Senior Management, the Centre and Unit
Managers and all the staff for the achievements of the past year and the effective manner in
which they have coped with daily challenges and difficulties. The achievements and
contributions of the LRF are only possible through the work of the staff and Trustees and the
ongoing support and generosity of its partners.
