Lastly l would like to express my gratitude to all the women who took part in this research project, taking their time off from their daily schedules to attend to an interview is something that humbled me, I pray and hope that one day your dreams should be realized. iv ABSTRACT Zambia is a signatory to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities (UNCRPD) and as such is expected to provide for people with disabilities. There are at present very few reports on the status of the lives and welfare of people with disabilities in Zambia. The purpose of this study was to identify the socio-cultural barriers that women living with disabilities in Kazungula and Livingstone districts experience in order to enjoy a full social life, placing emphasis on the status of their human rights. The CBR approach was used since it is a WHO approved method of rehabilitating and integrating people with disabilities into society. Livingstone and Kazungula districts were chosen as study areas to represent urban and rural areas. The study was performed qualitatively, and the data was collected through observations as well as individual interviews and focus group discussions. Barriers preventing women with disabilities from enjoying full social lives in these areas were physical, such as the lack of aids for the blind, interpreters or translators for the deaf, infrastructure to facilitate movement or access to buildings for the physically handicapped. In addition, poverty, dependence and negative attitudes were also identified as barriers. Poor education meant that the women could not compete favorably for formal employment and this made them unable to provide for their families especially that they did not receive any form of financial support from the government. On the cultural influence on families and relationship, the women in Kazungula were of the opinion that this was a significant barrier to social inclusion while their Livingstone counterparts responded otherwise. The respondents in Livingstone also had a much better knowledge of human rights and UNCRPD, than those in Kazungula who almost had no idea. In both districts, the responded felt that government was not doing enough to provide for them or to protect their human rights. The findings of this study suggest that women with disabilities in rural areas are at more disadvantaged than those in urban areas and therefore interventions should take into account this fact. The strongest basis for the barriers observed in this study was negative attitudes. In order to remove barriers, awareness campaigns aimed at changing people’s attitudes towards women with disabilities will be important. Secondly, having a job was found to be positively related to a satisfactory life style for the women with disabilities yet their educational v backgrounds disadvantaged them from acquiring employment. Introduction of programs that empower the women and encourage them to be self-reliant will be essential in removing some of the barriers faced by these women. Finally, CBR has the potential of turning things around because it’s social strategies allow different players to enter and offer different forms of support to the same community. This is important as it does not over-stretch the resources of one organization while maximizing the overall results. vi ABBREVIATIONS CBR Community-Based Rehabilitation DPO Disabled People’s Organization MMD Movement for Multiparty Democracy GRZ Government of the Republic of Zambia NAD Norwegian Association of the Handicapped OP Opportunity Zambia ILO International Labour Organisation PWD People living with Disabilities UNCRPD United Nations Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities UDHR Universal Declaration of Human Rights ZAFOD Zambia Federation of the Disabled ZAPD Zambia Agency for people with Disabilities ZHRC Zambia Human Rights Commissioner ZNAD Zambia National Association of the Deaf ZNADW Zambia National Association of Disabled Women vii TABLE OF CONTENTS Credit Page ……………………………………………...……………….……………..…i Declaration …………………..…………………………………………………………… ii Dedication ………………………………………………………………………...........…. iii Acknowledgement …………………………………………………………………........... iv Abstract …………………………………………………………………….……………….v Abbreviations……………………………………………………………….……………... vii Chapter 1 Introduction ……………………………………………………….....…….. 1 1.1 Background of the study …………………………………………................................... 1 1.2 Research question and objectives ………………………………………………...….…. 3 1.3 Methodology ……………………………………………………………....….….....….. 4 1.4 Research methods ..……………………………………………….…..…………..…..… 6 1.5 Research ethics …..……………………………………………………………….....….. 7 1.6 Overview of chapters ………...………………………………......................................... 8 Chapter 2 Zambia ..…………………………….…………………………….......…….. 9 2.1 Overview …………………………………..…………………………………...…….…. 9 2.2 Politics ……………………………………………………..…………………...…….…. 9 2.3 Economics …………………………………………....……………………………....... 10 2.4 Research area……………………………………………...…………………..…………11 Chapter 3 Disability, human rights, UNCRPD and CBR …………………....……... 13 3.1 Disabilities ..……………………………………..…………………...…………………. 13 3.2 Human rights …………………..……………………………………………......……… 14 3.3 Rights of Persons with disabilities in Zambia …………………………………….......... 15 3.4 UNCRPD .........................................................................................................................

SIL makes diligent efforts to identify and acknowledge sources and to obtain appropriate permissions wherever possible, acting in good faith and on the best information available at the time of publication. Abstract The language group investigated in this survey is the Toka-Leya of Zambia’s Southern Province which is located in Livingstone and Kazungula Districts as well as parts of Zimba and Kalomo Districts. Recent surveys listed over 55,000 speakers of Toka-Leya. The purposes of the 2013 research included exploring the relationships between the Toka-Leya language and related languages such as Tonga, Ila, Lozi, Nkoya, Lenje, Kunda, Nsenga and Soli. Another purpose was to obtain information on the language in order to assess the need for a language development project. Some anthropological and historical data which was collected is also included. The Toka-Leya language is often described as a dialect of Tonga [toi] that includes many Lozi words. Our analysis shows that Toka-Leya is a distinct language. It shares only 62% lexical similarity with Tonga and 17% lexical similarity with Lozi.

SIGNATURE: ABSTRACT Bemba traditional society views marriage as the union of a man and woman forever. In addition, marriage also signifies the bringing together and amalgamation of the bride and groom's immediate and extended families, thereby extending the sense of communalism in Bemba society. Because of the Bemba people's strong sense of oral tradition, marriages are contracted by word of mouth and not by a certificate. This strong sense of oral agreement has endured and is revered and respected, despite the rapid increase in literacy and the impact of inter- racial relations and modernization.
