Amani Trust

The Amani Trust was a Zimbabwean non-profit non-governmental organization dedicated to preventing organized violence and torture, to advocacy for the rights of victims and to rehabilitation of victims through community-based care.^[1] It was established in 1993 and had its headquarters in Harare. The organisation has now closed.^[2]
