Church Leaders To Reflect On National Budget At Upcoming ZCC Christian Policy Dialogue

 T


he Zimbabwe Council of Churches (ZCC), in partnership with the University of Zimbabwe, is set to host a 2026 Post-Budget and National Development Strategy 2 (NDS2) Analysis Meeting on 1 December 2025 at Kentucky Hotel in Harare.

The platform will bring together church leaders, academics, civil society partners and policy analysts to assess the newly presented 2026 National Budget and the recently launched NDS2 (2026–2030). According to the organisers, the gathering aims to explore how these policies align with Zimbabwe’s development aspirations and the wellbeing of citizens.

ZCC says the meeting will provide space for stakeholders to critically reflect on the country’s economic direction while grounding the discussion in Christian values of justice, accountability and societal stewardship.

Participants will interrogate key questions, including the potential impact of the budget on ordinary households, the feasibility of NDS2 targets, and whether the policies adequately support inclusive and sustainable development.

The Council is inviting Zimbabweans to share their views and contribute to the national conversation by engaging with their social media platforms:

The initiative is being supported by several partners, including the World Council of Churches, Zimcodd, the Fellowship of Christian Councils in Southern Africa, Christian Aid, and the NCA – Advocacy Programme for Africa.
