Noticeboard: Scholarships, Fellowships, Awards, Research, Job opportunities

ZimFact is introducing a ZimFact Noticeboard of Opportunities across a range of disciplines as a service contribution to the Zimbabwean public, especially young people who are looking for professional, education and training opportunities.

The ZimFact Noticeboard will only share verified information, collected from identifiable credible sources in line with the organisation’s mission to help fact-check information of public interest, fight the spread of false information and advance media literacy.

This initiative is being undertaken partly in response to the growing number of scam adverts of job opportunities in Zimbabwe, and is complementing ZimFact’s fact-checking efforts in this area.
