Movement for Democratic Change

The Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) is a political party in Zimbabwe that was established in 1999 to promote democratic governance, opposition to government corruption, and economic reform. It emerged as a response to dissatisfaction with the long-standing ruling party, aiming to offer an alternative leadership focused on political and economic reform. The MDC has played a significant role in Zimbabwe’s political landscape, often challenging the ruling party, advocating for fair elections, human rights, and improved living conditions for its citizens. Its influence has been marked by both moments of political progress and intense opposition struggles.
