We are endowed with a rich resource-base, resilient and interconnected people; vast arable land for agriculture; a wide array of minerals, a good climate, abundant wildlife as well as a rich culture,\u201d Mnangagwa said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur task is to unlock value from these diverse resources that we collectively share as a bloc.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet me reiterate the important need for Sadc, to re-purpose our human capital resource pool and optimise production and productivity specialisation anchored on the right education philosophy and configuration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said Zimbabwe was ready to share experiences of this journey with Sadc member States to evaluate, review and restructure respective education models to drive industrialisation and modernisation of the bloc.<\/p>\n<p>The President said there was a need to invest in research to drive forward our modernisation and industrialisation agenda.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo achieve this, the programming of our new education systems should be aligned to the abundant and key resources distributed across the Sadc bloc,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI, therefore, challenge member States to further reflect on these critical issues as we re-organise and mobilise to drive forward our modernisation and industrialisation agenda, through the requisite knowledge, research, innovation and new technologies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mnangagwa said Sadc needed also to leverage on natural resources and human capital to make the region a competitive economic bloc that has impact across the globe.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a duty to boldly and proactively address enclaves of disproportionate socio-economic development. The region should never play second fiddle in the arena of international economic relations,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLeveraging on our combined resource endowments and human capacities the region must emerge as a competitive economic bloc with the requisite capabilities to produce a wide array of goods and services.
