World Vision Zambia signs and MoU with the National Assembly of Zambia to Enhance Child Well-being

Despite ongoing efforts, there remains a critical need to enhance collaboration between civil society organisations and government institutions to effectively address child well-being in Zambia. Specifically, ensuring that policies, budgets, and programs related to child nutrition, health, education, and protection are adequately prioritised, monitored, and evaluated remains a challenge. This gap hampers the country’s progress toward sustainable development goals for children.
