The Deposit Protection Corporation (DPC), in collaboration with the Ministry of Finance, Economic Development and Investment Promotion, the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ), the Securities and Exchange Commission of Zimbabwe (SECZim), the Insurance and Pensions Commission (IPEC), Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education (MoPSE) ,and Postal & Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe (POTRAZ), joined thousands of learners to celebrate Global Money Week 2026 through financial literacy outreach programmes in Mashonaland West (8–12 June) and Mashonaland East (15–19 June).
Learners were equipped with practical knowledge on saving, budgeting, investing, responsible borrowing, and making informed financial decisions. In Mashonaland West, the team visited schools including Hartley 1 Primary School, Chegutu High School, St. Francis High School, Pfupajena High School, Kawondera Primary School, Matoranhembe High School, and Chinhoyi Technical High School, while learners from several schools came together at Magunje High School for an interactive financial literacy session.
In Mashonaland East, learners from Mutoko Primary School, Mutoko Government School, Mutoko Central, Chinzanga Primary School, and Munashe High School actively participated, asking thoughtful questions and sharing ideas on smart money management.
The enthusiasm and curiosity shown by learners at every stop highlighted the importance of teaching financial skills from an early age. DPC is proud to work with its partners to empower young people with the knowledge and confidence to make informed financial decisions.
DPC sincerely thanks the learners, teachers, parents, schools, partner institutions, and everyone who contributed to the success of this year’s Global Money Week outreach. Together, we are building a financially informed generation and a stronger future for Zimbabwe.
