World Vision Zambia WASH Business Plan 2026-2030

The World Vision Zambia Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) Business Plan for 2026-2030, titled "Mapping the Blue Thread," outlines a comprehensive strategy to accelerate universal and equitable access to WASH services across 42 countries, with a significant focus on Zambia. The plan aims to improve health, well-being, and livelihoods by delivering adaptive WASH solutions. It emphasises deepening focus on vulnerable populations, demonstrating sustainable impact, and mobilising $1.5 billion globally, with $48 million planned for in-country investments in Zambia. This data-driven approach will enable country WASH teams to implement targeted, location-specific strategies for maximum impact and sustainability.

Building on a bold vision set in 2021 to achieve universal service coverage in 29 operational areas by 2026, the 2026-2030 Business Plan will leverage strong partnerships with government, utilities, and the private sector to expand high-quality WASH services into new areas. Key initiatives include scaling remote monitoring, using private insurance for piped-water systems, strengthening sanitation marketing, improving menstrual health services in schools, and promoting hygiene behaviour change. These efforts are designed to reinforce health and education outcomes, ultimately uplifting Zambian communities for years to come.
