THE Ministry of Local Government and Public Works has organised a three-day heritage training workshop for Matabeleland North councillors, which will be held at a Bulawayo hotel from today until Sunday.
Various topics will be covered, with tutors from the Herbert Chitepo School of Ideology expected to facilitate. The Chitepo School of Ideology is an institution aimed at stimulating national consciousness and prioritising national interest above all else. It is one of several such institutions in the region established by revolutionary movements, with the objective of instilling the spirit of revolution in the youth and the population at large. The Mwalimu Julius Nyerere Leadership School in Tanzania serves as the headquarters for all former Liberation Movements in Southern Africa.
Matabeleland North Minister for Provincial Affairs and Devolution, Richard Moyo, will deliver the welcome remarks, followed by a keynote address by the Minister of Local Government and Public Works, Daniel Garwe.
Over the next three days, the workshop will cover a range of topics, including:
- National defence and security,
- The relationship between the Government, opposition, and the ruling party,
- International relations,
- Current affairs,
- Media and communication,
- The Zimbabwean economy,
- Social policies,
- Governance in Zimbabwe,
- National history,
- National heritage, and
- National ideology.
This comprehensive training aims to equip councillors with the knowledge and skills necessary to contribute effectively to the development and preservation of Zimbabwe’s heritage and national identity.
