New textbook takes Constitution to Zim’s classrooms

A NEW textbook aimed at demystifying Zimbabwe’s Constitution for learners in school has been launched more than a decade after the country adopted its supreme law.

The book authored by legal scholar, entrepreneur and civic education advocate Believe Guta, is titled: Constitutional Studies for Schools in Zimbabwe: A Guide to the Constitution for Zimbabwean Secondary School Students.

Published in Harare by the Big Brains Legal Aid Trust, the textbook seeks to take constitutional knowledge out of courtrooms and political debates and place it directly in classrooms.
