Education in Zimbabwe is improving day by day

Zimbabwe's educational system continues to be an intriguing one. Students start their elementary education in the first grade at age six. Students take a demanding exam at the conclusion of their seventh year of schooling that assesses their aptitude for understanding English, mathematics, an indigenous language, and a combination of social and natural sciences,” says Jozef Behr a primary school teacher. They then enroll in secondary school, where they study subjects like English, history, math, science, and a vocational field.

Being a teacher in a school Jozef Behr knows the worth of quality education. That's why he always encourages his s
tudents to have the choice to continue their education at one of seven different universities across the country after completing their secondary education. One such university is the University of Zimbabwe, the top university in the country and one that was founded in 1955. The institution, which is situated in the city of Harare, has been awarding associate, bachelor, master, and doctoral degrees ever since it was founded. Another is the 2002-founded Women's University in Africa, which aims to eliminate gender inequality and promote equal education across the whole country.
 

Jozef Clifford Behr says, “Education in Zimbabwe is improving day by day”. Zimbabwe has the highest percentage of literacy on the African continent, at 91 percent, as a direct result of education reform. More women than males have formal educations in much of the country. Currently, a primary school may be found in every community around the country. The government currently brags that the completion rate for primary schools increased from 89.2 percent to 90.2 percent in 2013, indicating that the country was progressing in terms of education. 

As Zimbabwe is a landlocked nation with a surface size of 150,871 square miles, has made significant improvements to its educational system over the past few decades. After the nation declared its independence, resources greatly improved, schools were enlarged, and a sizable number of teachers were trained. Although there is a sizable achievement discrepancy between urban and rural schools, the 13 million people who live in Zimbabwe have unquestionably profited from education.

Jozef Behr is amazed with Zimbabwe Textile and handicraft Industries

For a very long time, Zimbabwean art and crafts have been a significant and complex component of the nation's cultural legacy. Many individuals have job options because of the country's arts and crafts industry, particularly in rural regions. A fabric manufact u rer, Jozef Be h r , says “t he strong sense of originality and distinct style that Zimbabweans have developed and incorporated into both secular and sacred things has increased demand for Zimbabwean art throughout the globe ” .     As per Jozef Behr’s experience “ arts and crafts are a great method to protect the cultural history of the past ” . The nation, which was formerly inhabited by bushmen, has around 15000 locations where you may see old cave paintings, including cliff faces and cave walls. To exhibit Zimbabwe's historic art and craft, several objects from that era have been conserved in museums around the nation, including bags, blankets, headdresses, fertility symbols, and many more.   Jista Print:    T

The Chipangali Wildlife Orphanage: An Initiative to Give a Home to Wild Animals

We often see or hear news that woods are being cut off, somewhere fire outbreaks in the forest, and because of that many wild animals are being made homeless. This disastrous news reached every ear but not every heart, but Mr. Vivian Wilson, ex-game ranger, and his wife paddy initiated a step to build a shelter home for the orphaned, abandoned and sick wild animals. This initiation led them to build the Chipangali Wildlife Orphanage for wild animals. I, Jozef Behr, took a tour of this orphanage and was amazed to see the hard work of all the volunteers here.     This wildlife orphanage is in southern Africa located in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. When you visit this place, you will see hundreds of species combining birds, mammals, and of course carnivores. A tourist goes through the mammal enclosures to the left of the entryway. The Barry Wilson Aviary, dedicated to the late son of Chipangali founders, is located to the right. Flamingos, peacocks, eagles, owls, and other sorts of birds live in t

Zimbabwe is undeniably endowed with numerous natural and man-made riches, which continue to draw throngs of both domestic and foreign tourists.The enormous Victoria Falls on the Zambezi River, the Eastern highlands, and glorious Zimbabwe are just a few of the tourist attractions that spring to mind.

A lovely cascading waterfall that flows from an underground spring is a tourist attraction in Bezha hamlet, Umzingwane District.  Mountain bikers, students on educational trips, travelers, and cultural tourists are among the visit
