In an inspiring conversation, children had the opportunity to interview World Vision Zambia’s National Director, Marc Nosbach, about the organization’s efforts to improve child well-being across the country. The young interviewers asked insightful questions about access to clean water, education, and food security, highlighting the real challenges they and their peers face daily.

At 54 years old, Nercey stands tall among rows of leafy vegetables in her small backyard garden in Namwala district. Her hands gently brush over the produce she once only dreamed of growing year-round. Her eyes shine with pride, not just for her thriving crops, but for the transformation that has taken root in her life.

Zambia faces an urgent climate and environmental crisis. Each year, the country loses over 172,000 hectares of forest, driven by poverty, unsustainable agriculture, charcoal production, and illegal logging. More than 5.2 million hectares of land are now degraded, undermining food production and pushing families deeper into poverty. At the same time, climate change is accelerating soil erosion, unpredictable rainfall, and declining fertility are reducing agricultural productivity, while increasing the cost of living and migration pressures in rural communities.

World Vision Zambia, a member of World Vision International, is a development organisation that has continued to impact children’s lives through implementation of Community development programmes that contribute to the sustained well-being of 1,500,000 children, especially the most vulnerable in over 75 districts across Zambia.

Welcome to the very first edition of the Wider Vision Podcast! In this inaugural episode, the World Vision Zambia National Director, Marc Nosbach, shares the inspiration behind launching this podcast and highlights its vital role in advancing the well-being of children across the country.

World Vision Zambia’s Strong Girls Strong Zambia campaign is shifting gears as it enters its third year, with a bold new goal to raise ZMW 600,000 to provide 150 bicycles for girls in rural communities.

World Vision Zambia recently handed over 87 bicycles, including a tricycle, to dedicated volunteers working across the district. These bicycles are more than just a means of transport; they are tools of transformation.

During last year’s El Niño drought, fields dried up, hunger spread, and children walked long distances in search of food and water. But in Namwala’s Chitongo community, the Chitongo Dam constructed by World Vision Zambia became a lifeline and gave hope.
