Zimbabwe rolled out DuraIsiphala263 yesterday, a locally created system that helps education leaders make better decisions. The Higher Education Minister Frederick Shava called it part of President Mnangagwa's plan for a knowledge economy. The system stores information from all colleges about programs, students, graduates, and staff. It gives officials quick stats they can use right away. Several government ministers attended the launch event.

The new tool lets planners predict what jobs Zimbabwe will need in coming years. It also allows them to match school programs with what the economy actually requires. Minister Shava mentioned plans to connect this database with other government systems, like exam results. He asked everyone involved to use the system properly for planning based on real facts. The project marks just the first step in improving education management.

Zimbabwe Council for Higher Education leader, Professor Dzvimbo, praised the system for bringing live data to education planners. He said it shows Zimbabwe can create its technology instead of buying it from outside countries. Most higher education schools helped test the system before its launch. The project fits with government goals to modernize Zimbabwe through better data use.
