Mnangagwa Kicks Off Youth Fund for Zimbabwe

President Mnangagwa is starting a new Youth Empowerment Scheme today. This program gives young people in Zimbabwe money plus mining and farming equipment. The plan aims to support young business owners and farmers who help grow the economy. Africa has the youngest people worldwide, with many under 25 years old. Their numbers keep growing, bringing new chances and tests for future years.

By 2030, young Africans will make up 42 percent of all youth worldwide. The continent expects almost 1.3 billion young people then, which is a 42 percent jump from today. Youth Minister Tino Machakaire told The Herald yesterday that young citizens will see many new chances after today's event. These special programs fit what young people need most right now.

"The President will launch a youth empowerment scheme. We offer funding, farm machines, mining gear, and other youth support projects. We expect 5,000 young people coming from all ten provinces to HICC," he said. President Mnangagwa always points out how young people play key roles in building the economy and protecting Zimbabwe. Since his Second Republic began, many youth programs have started, letting young citizens join economic recovery efforts.

"The older group brought independence, freedom, and peace. You must deliver next. Together, African youth can create the Africa we want and deserve," he said. The Second Republic strongly supports young people by placing them in important leadership jobs. These spots include government departments, Parliament, company boards, and advisory groups. The President asked these leaders to serve others well and bring more youth into social, economic, and cultural activities.

Today's Youth Fund launch should see investors from Asia who want to invest here and create jobs for young workers. Special Presidential Investment Advisor Dr Paul Tungwarara invited four business leaders worth nearly $500 million combined. These investors search for ways to boost economic growth across many areas, like education, clean energy, and healthcare. The group includes Dr. Ajeenkya Patil, Mr. Rajat Verma, and Mr. Ravi Reddy, rich businessmen from India, plus Mr. Lalu Samuel, a wealthy businessman from the United Arab Emirates.
