In recent years, the care of orphaned and vulnerable children (OVC) in Zimbabwe has become increasingly reliant on philanthrocapitalist interventions. This shift has raised concerns about the commodification of care and its implications for the well-being of OVC. This chapter employs a critical discourse analysis approach to examine the impact of philanthrocapitalism on OVC care in Zimbabwe. Through a desktop analysis of existing literature and policies, this chapter critiques the ways in which philanthrocapitalist discourses shape the care and support provided to OVC. The findings reveal that philanthrocapitalism has led to the commodification of vulnerability, where OVC are viewed as opportunities for investment and profit rather than as individuals in need of care and support. This has resulted in a fragmented and unsustainable care system that prioritises the interests of philanthrocapitalist investors over the needs of OVC. The main finding of this study is that philanthrocapitalism has exacerbated the vulnerability of OVC in Zimbabwe, rather than alleviating it. Based on this finding, it is recommended that policymakers and practitioners prioritise a Rights-Based Approach to OVC care, one that prioritises the needs and well-being of OVC over the interests of philanthrocapitalist investors.
