This serves as a summary on the constrains to rural women`s participation in PMTCT programmes in Zimbabwe. A quantitative survey was conducted with 118 rural women from Masvingo Rural Ward 11 in Zimbabwe. The major factors which were studied included demographic factors, socio-cultural factors and knowledge on PMTCT. A stasticical package namely SPSS 16. 0 version was used in analysing the data which was obtained through the use of questionnaires. Chi-square was used in data analysis. Data was presented in forms of pie charts, graphs and tables. It was found out that socio-cultural factors, lack of male involvement and lack of knowledge on PMTCT are some of the major constraining factors in rural women`s participation in such programmes. As such, the researcher recommended that the service providers of such programme adopt an empowerment based approach when implementing such programmes for effective participation of women.
