Impacts

Issues and challenges affecting the education sector and supporting sub-sectors like health and WASH, and some of these are strategic and remain relevant to the work that ROCS intends to pursue in the next five years.

Water and Sanitation

Access to water and sanitation is an element to enforcing quality education especially in community schools. It is also a precondition for social and economic development. ROCS will engage in various activities both hardware and software

Health and Nutrition

Under-nutrition is endemic and poses a serious threat to the cognitive development and wellbeing of children. ROCS will support School Feeding Programs (SFP) as it contributes to the alleviation of short-term hunger.

Education

Poor infrastructure and governance structures among others are the factors hampering the delivery of quality education. In this regard, ROCS will engage both primary duty bearer (MOGE) and the secondary duty bearers (parents) at community levels

Climate Change

Climate Change is a cross cutting issue. Effects of poor rainfall patterns, drought and floods greatly affect the education of children especially in rural areas where there are long distances to schools and the roads and bridges are bad.

Influencing

The organisation will continue engaging in joint advocacy through coalitions like ZANAC, ZECDAN, ZCCN, among many others. Failure to influence decision-making and policy might subsequently mean children in these areas will not have access to lifelong learning

Theory of Change

This Theory of Change is a simplified version and does not include the external factors and assumptions behind the theory. In order to know if this Theory of Change also happens in practice, the various elements are operationalised with the indicators of the logical framework

Influencing

Providing platforms and conducive environment for children to engage with service providers

Strengthened policy environment at local, district and national level that promotes and supports children’s participation in governance and decision-making processes by 2027.
