UMP RDC

Empowering the Leaders of Tomorrow! 🎓✨

Today, Uzumba Maramba Pfungwe Rural District Council (UMP RDC) hosted a high-impact engagement meeting with our vibrant Junior Council.

The dedicated student leaders brought crucial issues directly to the table, shedding light on the real challenges pupils are facing in schools across our district. From infrastructure and learning resources to student well-being, the Junior Council voiced the priorities of their peers with clarity and passion.

At UMP RDC, we believe that young people aren't just the leaders of tomorrow—they are key partners in building a better district today. We are committed to taking these insights forward to help foster a safer, more supportive educational environment for every learner.

Thank you to our Junior Councillors for their dedication, leadership, and bold vision for UMP! 🤝🌟
