The pastor of the Free Evangelical Assembly Christian Centre, which cares and provides for HIV/AIDS orphans, leading an assembly with the community.

The children of Chimoio, losing one or both parents to HIV/AIDS, learn their farming and life skills through an innovative pilot project made possible by a partnership between FAO, the World Food Programme (WFP) and a local Christian centre. The Junior Farmer Field and Life Schools are led by volunteer facilitators who, three times a week, help the children learn by observation using the cropping season as a "living classroom". In the end, the children will be able to perform their own field research and draw their own conclusions about the performance of various farming methods. The children also enhance their self-esteem and learn life skills by taking part in theatre and dance performances on such themes as children's rights and the equality of men and women and HIV/AIDS prevention.
