AN empowerment youth lobby group, Boys Dzamdara, will be promoting participation of those aged between 15 and 35 in the national economy in line with Vision 2030, its chairman, Mr Hopewell Chako, has said.
“We aim to support young visionaries who are creative and have innovative ideas and feasible community-driven projects,” he said. Boys Dzamdara will also assist youths with funding for various projects.
“We are assisting youths with funding, especially those who want to venture into projects. The group consists of young people who have benefited under the Second Republic. President Mnangagwa is saying no one should be left behind, let’s be business minded. Let’s build our country together,” said Mr Chako.
“We are saying let’s support Government programmes as the youth. Let’s have an inclusive and empowered generation of young professionals in support of the national vision.
“This organisation will work with young people in business to support President Mnangagwa’s vision through Government policies and stipulated laws.
“We will also host seminars to inculcate business acumen in the young generation.” The lobby group will also move around the country educating the younger generation about the dangers of drug and substance abuse.
President Mnangagwa has come up with various initiatives to promote youth participation in national development.
He is on record as saying the youths should lead Zimbabwe’s pursuit of becoming an upper-middle-class economy by 2030, as they are key agents of transforming the country and driving sustainable economic growth and development.
