The Zimbabwe Coalition on Debt and Development on Saturday the 3rd of October 2015 facilitated the National High School Students Debate and Public Speaking Gala that saw six schools participating.
Zimcodd posted on its wall that students were drawn from Christian Brothers College,Founders High School,Kambuzuma High 1,Hatfield Girls High,Allan Wilson and John Tallach High School.
"It was a platform which allowed students to show how knowledgeable they are on issues of social and economic justice as enshrined in the constitution," Zimcodd said.
"Founders High School representatives grabbed the trophy. ZIMCODD debate and public speaking galas started in 2012 and have been developed into a fully fledged annual national competition. Through debate and public speaking, ZIMCODD seeks to encourage research and the growth of a concerned citizenry among the students, their teachers and community as a whole."
The organisation said armed with these skills and knowledge the community will be enriched in the knowledge on constitutional, social and economic rights as well as a critical understanding of government policy, debt management and illicit outflows.
