Recognizing the growing need to safeguard both tangible and intangible heritage in the face of rapid urbanization and globalization, the Trust established the Panyatsime Heritage and Culture Centre (East of Harare at 18592 Rockview, Zengeza 5, Chitungwiza), providing a dedicated space for the preservation, promotion, and celebration of Zimbabwe’s rich cultural heritage and traditions.
