Silveira House

Silveira was founded in 1964 by John Dove,^[2][3][4] who remained at Silveira House until 1984.

In the late 1960s and 1970s, Silveira House became a centre for trade union education and political organizing.^[5] With the establishment of Zimbabwe as an independent nation in 1980 and new opportunities for the black majority, Silveira continued its programs in civic education for political participation,^[6] and in skills training, agriculture, and community building. With the economic woes of the 1990s, Silveira launched programs in peacebuilding, lobbying, and advocacy, and increased its technical training capacity.^[7][8]

In 2014 the house celebrated its 50th anniversary.^[9]

In 2018 Silveira House organized an indaba for the 23 Zimbabwean presidential candidates.^[10][11]
