    Public Disclosure Authorized IMPROVED RURAL CONNECTIVITY Public Disclosure Authorized PROJECT (IRCP) REHABILITATION OF PRIMARY FEEDER ROADS IN EASTERN PROVINCE Public Disclosure Authorized ENVIRONMENTAL PROJECT BRIEF September 2020 SUBMITTED BY EASTCONSULT/DASAN CONSULT - JV Public Disclosure Authorized Improved Rural Connectivity Project Environmental Project Brief for the Rehabilitation of Primary Feeder Roads in Eastern Province Improved Rural Connectivity Project (IRCP) Rehabilitation of Primary Feeder Roads in Eastern Province EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Government of the Republic Zambia (GRZ) is seeking to increase efficiency and effectiveness of the management and maintenance of the of the Primary Feeder Roads (PFR) network. This is further motivated by the recognition that the road network constitutes the single largest asset owned by the Government, and a less than optimal system of the management and maintenance of that asset generally results in huge losses for the national economy. In order to ensure management and maintenance of the PFR, the government is introducing the OPRC concept. The OPRC is a concept is a contracting approach in which the service provider is paid not for ‘inputs’ but rather for the results of the work executed under the contract i.e. the service provider’s performance under the contract. The initial phase of the project, supported by the World Bank will be implementing the Improved Rural Connectivity Project (IRCP) in some selected districts of Central, Eastern, Northern, Luapula, Southern and Muchinga Provinces. The project will be implemented in Eastern Province for a period of five (5) years from 2020 to 2025 using the Output and Performance Road Contract (OPRC) approach. GRZ thus intends to roll out the OPRC on the PFR Network covering a total of 14,333Kms country-wide.

    Mwami Adventist Hospital, Zambia Photo courtesy of Moses M. Banda. Mwami Adventist Hospital MOSES M. BANDA Moses M. Banda , M.A. (Zambia Open University, Lusaka, Zambia), B.A. in theology (Rusangu University), serves as president of East Zambia Field of Seventh-day Adventists. He is an ordained minister and has served in various positions for 20 years. He is married to Eness with whom he has two children. Mwami Adventist Hospital is a medical institution of the Southern Zambia Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. Developments that Led to the Establishment of the Institution As early as 1913, C. Robinson yearned to secure a foothold in north-east Rhodesia; somewhere near Fort Jameson (now Chipata).1 On October 2, 1925, G. A. Ellingworth of Malamulo Mission acquired a farm of 3,035 acres, on which Mwami Mission station was established.2 Between 1925 and 1927, Samuel Moyo served as the mission station director. He was respected and regarded as one of God’s gentlemen. In 1927, the final transaction for the tract of the farmland situated between Fort Manning and Fort Jameson was concluded. The farm had three streams, good soil, and pastureland that could support a small herd. It had previously been a tobacco farm, with many old brick buildings. The unusable buildings were still valuable in that they contained 200,000 good bricks, needed for mission buildings.3 Mwami Adventist Hospital was established as an extension of medical missionary work conducted at Malamulo Mission in Malawi.4 Mwami is 480 kilometers from Malamulo, and 30 kilometers southeast of Chipata, the provincial capital city of the Eastern Province of Zambia, in the Luangeni constituency along Vubwi Road.5 The mission was named after the Mwami stream, which flows through the mission farm.6 The Mwami stream originates from the eastern side of Mkwabe mountain, then deviates northwards through the Mwami Dam until it crosses Vubwi Road near Lufazi Village.

  • Baseline Report Zambia: Prevalence, Causes and Effects of Child Marriage
    Gaining insight into the magnitude of and factors influencing child marriage and teenage pregnancy in Zambia Baseline Report December 2016 by Dr J. Anitha Menon Dr Sidney O.C. Mwaba Dr T. Kusanthan Ingrid Zuleta MD Dr Maryse C. Kok Preface YES I DO. is a strategic alliance of five Dutch organizations which main aim is to enhance the decision making space of young women about if, when and whom to marry as well as if, when and with whom to have children. Funded by the sexual and reproductive health and rights policy framework of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands, the alliance is a partnership between Plan Nederland, Rutgers, Amref Flying Doctors, Choice for Youth and Sexuality and the Royal Tropical Institute. Led by Plan, the alliance members have committed to a five-year programme to be implemented between 2016 and 2020 in seven countries: Ethiopia, Indonesia, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Pakistan and Zambia. The YES I DO Alliance partners and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands acknowledge that child marriage, teenage pregnancy and female genital mutilation/cutting are interrelated issues that involve high health risks and human rights violations of young women and impede socioeconomic development. Therefore, the YES I DO programme applies a mix of intervention strategies adapted to the specific context of the target countries. The theory of change consists of five main pathways: 1) behavioural change of communities and gatekeepers, 2) meaningful engagement of young people in claiming for their sexual and reproductive health and rights, 3) informed actions of young people on their sexual health, 4) alternatives to the practice of child marriage, female genital mutilation/cutting and teenage pregnancy through education and economic empowerment and 5) responsibility and political will of policymakers and duty bearers to develop and implement laws towards the eradication of these practices.
