In 1999, Chitungwiza Municipality adopted a new way of advocacy, in which they enacted a Junior Council which advocates for the realisation of the rights of the children of Chitungwiza. The Junior Council is a mirror of the senior council (Chitungwiza Municipality Council), though the major difference in structures is that at Junior Council, The Junior Town Clerk is a Junior Councillor elected to uphold the administrative duties of advocacy at Junior Council level. The Junior Council also serve one-year term of office.
