World Vision Zambia has been named Best Social Marketing Organisation of the Year 2025 at the Zambia Institute of Marketing's 29th Annual Marketing Conference and Awards, a recognition that belongs not to us, but to the people who made it possible.

Daniel’s story is a powerful example of how vision, discipline, and the right support can transform lives. After participating in World Vision’s Empowered Worldview Training and receiving start-up capital, the 44-year-old farmer from Kageyo Sector, Gicumbi District, shifted from subsistence farming and chronic food shortages to profitable agriculture. By applying modern farming techniques and carefully planning his goals in a notebook he calls his “Performance Targets Notebook,” Daniel steadily increased his harvests from just 5 kilograms of beans to more than two tonnes of produce per season. His success has enabled him to provide adequate food for his family, improve their living conditions, purchase productive assets, and expand his farming business. Guided by a clear vision and commitment to continuous growth, Daniel now looks forward to even greater development for himself and his family.
