By Kudzai Jakachira
HARARE— The Zimbabwe Building Contractors Association has declared 2027 as its official “Year of Building,” launching a resource mobilization campaign to construct a permanent national headquarters in the capital.
Unveiling the architectural plans during his presidential address at the ZBCA Annual Conference 2026, President Dr Tinashe Manzungu announced that the association has acquired a site and accumulated initial funds through member contributions.
The proposed ZBCA House will serve as an institutional center for professional development, housing the ZBCA Academy, the Young Contractors Desk, the Materials Suppliers’ Desk, and editorial offices for *Construction Magazine*.
“2027 will be our Year of Building! Our ambition is to move from planning and design towards physical construction,” Dr Manzungu declared, appealing to material manufacturers, financial institutions, and member firms for equipment, material, and financial support.
“The greatest legacy of leadership is not what we build for ourselves, but what we build together for generations we may never meet,” Dr Manzungu added.
