Forest loss is caused by a mix of factors that are not well understood, and their combined effects act to either directly drive forest cover loss or interact with other or influences. In order to understand the drivers and their interactions a study was commissioned to provide a preliminary understanding of drivers of deforestation and the potential for forest types (Fanshawe 1971; White 1983); to differ REDD+ in Zambia; to assess the extent of current substantially in the key drivers of deforestation consumption of forest products, forest production (ZFAP 1998); and have diverse cultural and socio- and development trends as well as potential future economic settings. Sample selection of districts shifts in these patterns that may affect deforestation was based on review of statistics from isolated case levels; to draw conclusions on which actions/trends studies and on analysis of land cover maps and would likely have the worst consequences in terms satellite images. of causing additional deforestation and how these could be reduced in future; and finally to outline the potential for REDD+ in these circumstances. Vegetation Types Of Zambia An interdisciplinary data gathering approach was Zambia has three major vegetation formations.

Report20 Uniting to End Malaria 501(C)3
PHOTO BY PAUL ISHII ANNUAL REPORT20 Uniting to End Malaria 501(c)3. EIN: 46-1380419 No one can foresee the duration or severity of COVID’s human and economic toll. But the malaria global health community agrees it will be disastrous to neglect or underinvest in malaria during this period, and thereby squander a decade of hard won progress. By some estimates, halting malaria intervention efforts could trigger a return to one million malaria deaths per year, a devastating mortality rate unseen since 2004. To that end many of our efforts last year were to strategically advocate for continued global malaria funding, as well as supporting COVID adjustments to ensure malaria projects were not delayed. Last year we supplied Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) to over 700 Rotary-funded community health workers (CHWs) in Uganda and Zambia; altered CHW The training to incorporate appropriate social distancing; conducted several webinars specifically focused on maintaining malaria financial support despite COVID; and we provided $50,000 to the Alliance for Malaria Prevention used for COVID/malaria public education in Africa. Jeff Pritchard Board Chair While our near-term work must accommodate pandemic restrictions, we are still firmly committed to our mission, “to generate a broad international Rotary campaign for the global elimination of malaria.” During the coming twelve months we intend to: • Implement a blueprint developed in 2020 for a large long-term Road malaria program with Rotary, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and World Vision, in the most underserved regions of Zambia’s Central and Muchinga Provinces, positively impacting nearly 1.4 million residents. -
