Accurate information is essential to achieving Zimbabwe's goal of becoming an upper-middle-class economy by 2030, Information, Publicity, and Broadcasting Services Minister Dr. Jenfan Muswere said. In a speech delivered by Deputy Minister Omphile Marupi at the Second Consultation on Media and Information Literacy Strategy in Harare, Dr. Muswere emphasized that access to reliable information helps communities become more resilient and innovative.

He stressed the importance of safeguarding citizens against misinformation and educating them to detect inaccuracies. Dr. Muswere also highlighted the government's partnership with the private sector in implementing the Media and Information Literacy (MIL) strategy, which aims to improve access to knowledge and foster critical thinking.

Dr. Muswere noted that with the rise of AI, distinguishing between fact and misinformation would become increasingly difficult, making media literacy crucial. He also underscored the need to deliver information in all 16 local languages to ensure inclusivity.
