Zero coordinates, catalyses, facilitates and evaluates all types and levels of development projects in the region. Policy advocacy is also a role Zero plays evolving out of research conducted and programs implemented. We know from experience the how and the why of what works in the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region.
Projects developed and administered by Zero include agricultural productivity and land resources issues. For example, wind pattern studies have been carried out leading to the development and erection of wind turbine electrical generation plants. These have been used to power irrigation farming in, and bring electricity to, rural Zimbabwe.
