Anti-corruption Organisation Urges Govt To Introduce Anti-Corruption Modules In Schools
The Zimbabwe Women Against Corruption Trust (ZWACT) says having anti-corruption modules in the country’s education system is necessary for fighting graft.
In a statement on International Youth Day, ZWACT also urged the youth not to shy away from taking leadership positions to be better placed to fight corruption. Reads the ZWACT seen by NewsDay Zimbabwe:
Mainstreaming anticorruption teachings in the education curricula from early childhood learning up to tertiary institutions will ensure that people know their rights from a younger age and be empowered to resist and report corruption when it occurs.
FeedbackThe country is losing large sums of money annually through illicit financial flows and tax evasion. When the government fails to collect enough revenue, many obligations won’t be fulfilled, especially that of creating jobs for the youth.
This year’s International Youth Day was held under the theme: Intergenerational Solidarity: Creating a World for all ages.
ZWACT said the youth must also be empowered to actively participate in governance processes for them to grow in a positive environment that promotes their personal growth.
ZWACT added that the participation of youths in governance and mainstream economic issues was being hampered by corruption and poverty.
