The Australian edition of the Zimbabwe Achievers Awards (ZAA) rounded off the global campaign in style, at a gala dinner held in Melbourne.
Guests turned out in their numbers to celebrate this year’s 85 nominees who made an impression throughout the year, in a number of sectors that include business, media, sport and music.
Organising Director for ZAA Australia, Method Mukundu said: “This year’s gala dinner at the Marriott was a huge success. It was a great night of celebration and of Zimbabwean excellence.
ZAA is also a great platform for networking with like-minded Zimbabweans who are putting the nation on the map.”
“This was our second awards gala in the country and we are only going from strength to strength,” Mukundu said.
“We are also excited to announce that Sydney will host the third edition and preparations have already started,” he added.
