Elections

Learners justify the significance of electing leaders, understand the meaning and characteristics of credible elections, and classify different types (Presidential, National Assembly, Local Government) and forms (General, By-elections). The topic delves into the role of the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ), the electoral process, the Electoral Code of Conduct, voters' rights, and electoral malpractice. Analysing Zambia's electoral system prepares students for CBC assessments and ECZ exams on democratic participation, a core pillar of Civic Education.
