On 27th October Midlands State University will be launching its new Disability Studies Masters and Diploma courses – a major breakthrough for disability rights campaigners as this is only the second university in Africa to do so.
The Canon Collins Trust, a nominating agency for the Commonwealth Scholarship programme, said is immensely proud to have supported Kudzai Shava to study Disability at the University of Leeds, enabling him to write a new course for the Zimbabwean context.
"We are also proud to be directly supporting this new initiative, by providing scholarships and equipment to assist with disabled access to the course.
"We very much hope to be able to increase our support during the course of the year and are currently fundraising for this purpose," said a statement from Canon Collins.
