We are honoured to announce that Zimbabwe Flying Labs has received Ministerial approval from the Department of Civil Protection to collaborate with and be co-opted into the National Civil Protection Committee.
This recognition highlights the growing role of emerging technologies in strengthening disaster risk management and national resilience. Through this collaboration, we will contribute our expertise in drone technology, geospatial data, artificial intelligence, and digital innovation to support disaster preparedness, response, recovery, and resilience across Zimbabwe.
Together with the Department of Civil Protection, we look forward to contributing to:
* Capacity building and training in drone operations and geospatial technologies.
* Drone deployment for disaster monitoring, risk mapping, search and rescue, and rapid damage assessments.
* Strengthening disaster preparedness, response coordination, and recovery planning.
* Hazard mapping, environmental monitoring, and contingency planning.
* Knowledge sharing, research, and innovation to advance evidence-based disaster risk management.
This milestone reflects the increasing importance of technology-driven solutions in addressing national challenges and reinforces our commitment to using innovation for social impact.
We extend our sincere appreciation to the Department of Civil Protection, the Ministry of Local Government and Public Works, and all our partners for their confidence in our work. We look forward to building a safer, more resilient Zimbabwe through collaboration and innovation.
