Happening now!!!
We are conducting Access to Information Training workshop to ward structures. The objective of the training is to equip community representatives with knowledge on how to request information for the purpose of accountability on duty bearers.

Harare now has a total of 59 councillors; 45 who were elected from Harare's 45 Wards and 14 female councillors who were elected through the 30 percent women’s quota for local authorities.
Section 277 (3) of the Constitution of Zimbabwe stipulates that, "councillors of local authorities assume office on the ninth (9th) day after the announcement of the results of the general election in which the councillors were elected."
In addition, the Urban Councils Act 29:15 Section 47)(3) gives the Town Clerk the duty and responsibility to the swearing in of newly elected Councillors before assumption of duty.
Harare Residents call for a Social Service Delivery Election Agenda, anchored on constitutionalism supported by;
1. Accountable Local Elected Leadership
2. Devolution and Decentralisation
3. Infrastructure Development
4. Sustainable Revenue Generation
