BACKGROUND OF ESTABLISHMENT
In 2019, Africa AHEAD, which was a registered UK Charity 2013-2019, decided to move back to our roots in Zimbabwe and base our headquarters in Harare, where the organisation, then known as Zimbabwe AHEAD was first started in 1999.
Africa AHEAD was split into two discreet entities which are sister organisations and are both autonomous but share the same vision to use the Community Health Club Methodology for sustainable development.
- Africa AHEAD Zimbabwe is an implementing Not for Profit Indigenous Organisation based in Harare, Zimbabwe headed by Executive Director, Mr Regis Matimati;
- Africa AHEAD Association is a Not for Profit Consultancy based in Cape Town, South Africa, headed up by two Directors, Dr. Juliet Waterkeyn and Mr. Anthony Waterkeyn, the co-founders of both organisations, which supports Africa AHEAD in Zimbabwe with training and research.
