Teenage sensation and Motor Cross Champion Ambassador Tanya Muzinda (14) is being recognised as a silver lining on the grey cloud of tension between the Zimbabwean Government and the European Union.
Tanya Muzinda who was recently awarded the African Child Sports Personality Of The year making her the number 1 young sportsperson on the continent is also the Honorary Ambassador of the European Union to Zimbabwe for Youth , Gender ,Sports and Development.
This landmark achievement was conveyed to her by then European Head Of Delegation Aldo Dell’Aricia. This soft diplomacy has been taunted in some corners as the hub of re-engagement the 1st republic missed.
Tanya Muzinda has been travelling across the 10 provinces adopting schools to fulfill her dream of sending 1000 students to school. In Harare Metropolitan she picked Chinamano primary School in Epworth and has paid school fees for 100students.
Through her Friends Of Tanya initiative, Tanya serves as the pivot between the less privileged and those with hearts to give and help. The same pivot she can be between the Zimbabwean Government and the European Union if fully utilised.
