ZANU PF will convene its 23rd National People’s Conference to review Government’s implementation of party policies and assess progress made on previous resolutions as it seeks to accelerate delivery of Vision 2030.

The conference, to be held at Chinhoyi University of Technology in Mashonaland West Province from October 12 – 17, will be held under the theme: “From Resolutions to Results: Consolidating Economic Development and Deepening Economic Empowerment Towards Vision 2030.”

ZANU PF Secretary for Information and Publicity Cde Christopher Mutsvangwa said the conference will provide an opportunity for the ruling party to assess how its policies are being translated into programmes and results on the ground.

“The conference will review the work carried out by the Government as it implements the policies of ZANU PF. The elected Government is responsible for executing these policies on the ground, while the party reviews progress and provides appropriate guidelines to ensure effective implementation,” he said.

Cde Mutsvangwa said the party would  also identify successful programmes and examine how they can be refined and replicated widely to improve the productive lives of Zimbabweans.

“We never sit on our laurels as a party. We are always eager to learn. We will be identifying case studies where we have done well, and we will refine them so that they become examples of even broader application in the productive lives of Zimbabweans at work so that prosperity can be delivered,” he said.

The conference is one of ZANU PF’s key policy platforms, providing an opportunity for members to review progress, evaluate previous resolutions and chart the party’s future direction.

Cde Mutsvangwa said the review will also focus on the party’s relationship with the people, its historic commitments and the preservation of institutional memory.

The conference is expected to bring together about 3 500 delegates.

Preparations for the event are already above 70 percent, with the party saying logistical and structural works are progressing well.

ZANU PF National Chairperson Cde Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri is leading preparations and is working closely with Mashonaland West provincial chairperson Cde Marry Mliswa-Chikoka to ensure the conference’s success.

Cde Mutsvangwa commended the two leaders for spearheading preparations, describing their involvement as a demonstration of the party’s commitment to women’s participation in leadership.

The conference theme places implementation and economic empowerment at the centre of the party’s deliberations, with the focus on translating resolutions into tangible development outcomes in line with Vision 2030.

Party structures have also raised the issue of aligning the ZANU PF constitution with the national Constitution, arguing that this will eliminate inconsistencies, strengthen institutional cohesion and reduce internal contests.
