About
Tendai Nzonzo is a Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) practitioner from Zimbabwe.
He holds a First Class Honours degree in Geography and Population Studies from Lupane State University and has over five years’ experience implementing multi-donor development and humanitarian programs in Zimbabwe’s Matabeleland region. His work spans education, SRHR, HIV/AIDS, child protection, food security, and climate resilience.
Passionate about the intersection of social protection, environmental sustainability, and inclusive development, Tendai is pursuing an MPhil in Geography in Cambridge.
His research will focus on ‘Austerity, Debt, and Climate Adaptation in African Cities’, with a case study on water security in Harare. By exploring how fiscal constraints impact urban climate resilience, he hopes to generate insights that inform equitable policy-making and adaptive governance in the Global South. After Cambridge, he intends to continue championing community-centred climate justice and evidence-based development across Africa.
