Members of the National Council are calling for free tertiary education and improved access to financial assistance for all students.

The MUN/NAMIT EduFund Grant is funding 157 students this year, covering registration fees and easing the financial burden of tertiary education.

With no repayment required, this first-of-its-kind initiative reflects MUN’s commitment to supporting its members beyond the workplace.

Education, Arts, and Culture Minister Anna Nghipondoka has called on teachers to work harder, identify challenges in the system, and address them to improve performance. 

She made these remarks at a meeting attended by the educators, from the heads of departments down to the learners.
