Executive Summary This is the third FY16 quarterly report for the Fostering Accountability and Transparency (FACT) in Zambia program, #AID-611-14-L-00001, under the USAID Global Civil Society Leader with Associates Award. This is a 5-year, $5.9 million, program that began on September 30, 2014 and will conclude on September 29, 2019. The goal of FACT is to improve the enabling governance environment of Zambia by increasing citizen demand for effective, transparent, and accountable service delivery. The Program activities fall within two program objectives: • Objective 1: Strengthen capacity of local Civil Society Organizations (CSO) to enhance delivery and oversight of public service delivery in the education, health/HIV, sustainable rural livelihoods and environment sectors; and • Objective 2: Improved engagement between citizens and government service providers in the education, health/HIV, sustainable rural livelihoods and environment sectors to improve service delivery. The political context is currently dominated by issues related to the elections of counselors, members of parliament and the president of the Republic of Zambia. There’s also a referendum on the Bill of Rights as part of Constitutional reform. Heightened political rivalries that have been accompanied by some violence has led to a cautious approach by FACT. The District Public Dialogue Forums in four districts were carefully managed to prevent any misrepresentation of the purpose of the dialogues. The PDFs went well with meaningful dialogue between citizens, civil society, service providers and local authorities and actions plans were developed. The implementing FACT partners have continued mobilising and strengthening community groups and structures to engage effectively with service providers and decision makers. Communities have identified a range of issues that are preventing them from accessing quality services. COMACO became the sixth local CSO to be awarded a sub-award for FACT, working in three districts in Eastern Province on engagement and collaboration between farmers, communities and government agencies to promote conservation and sustainable livelihoods led by farmer cooperatives. Counterpart continued to progress towards awarding sub-awards to civil society coalitions to take up government engagement and advocacy aspects of FACT at the Provincial and National levels. To this end, Counterpart facilitated a proposal development meeting for coalitions to strengthen the contents of their proposed projects and align them better with the objectives of FACT. Progress continues in achieving the FY16 milestones and indicator targets. Eight of the FY16 indicator targets have now been met or exceeded. Indicators related to the result areas concerned with citizen oversight and grassroots participation have shown the greatest progress this quarter. Challenges in getting duty bearers to not just engage with citizens and civil society but to take action to address poor service delivery, continues to hinder more widespread enhancement of services. Counterpart recognizes that continued strengthening of staff, civil society and citizens is needed to challenge the prevailing culture that’s unresponsive to the demands of citizens. III. Political Context As the 2016 election campaign intensifies, there have been reports of in-fighting within both the ruling Patriotic Front (PF) and the opposition United Party for National Development (UPND). One area of contention for political parties was the selection of party candidates for the parliamentary elections. Disputes within political parties on who should stand for election in some constituencies led to internal divisions. There have also been cases of violence between supporters of opposing political parties. In April there were outbreaks of violence, looting and riots in a number of parts of Lusaka. The riots were triggered by a series of ‘ritual’ murders where several cases of murder in Lusaka involved the mutilation of the murdered bodies. Some of the violence targeted ethnic minorities, including Rwandans, on the basis of accusations that members of Rwandan community were behind the ritual killings. Hundreds of people, mostly Rwandese, were forced to leave their homes and find shelter elsewhere including several hundred at one of the catholic churches in Lusaka. The violence was brought under control after about three days with an increased presence of law enforcement agencies around the city. The riots showed that conditions exist for further violence to be triggered 4 by perceived injustices and weak law enforcement. The three main Church

  • Crop Diversification Among Smallholder Farmers in Kapiri-Mposhi District
    Crop diversification among smallholder farmers in Kapiri-Mposhi District Bessy Kabongola Eunice N. S. Imasiku 1. INTRODUCTION A broad-based economic growth has been the main objective throughout Zambia’s post- independence years. To achieve this, five policy goals were set out just after independence: Economic diversification, employment creation, removal of regional and sectoral inequalities, sustainable internal and external balance and provision of social facilities. The financial base for achieving these goals was mineral assets and copper in particular (Chiwele, 1999). The major decline in copper prices in 1974 marked the beginning of Zambia’s protracted economic decay. In the bid to offset the damage caused by the declining mining sector, the government directed its efforts to the development of agriculture sector (Saasa, 1996). Agricultural growth was to play an important role, especially with respect to the first two goals highlighted above. The three decades of experimenting with economic and agricultural policies, have failed to stimulate the expected outcome as many resources of the agricultural sector are not fully utilised. The reason for this idling of land as argued by Chiwele (1999) is not a shortage in the amount of financial resources spent by the government in the agriculture sector, but rather the allocation of the financial resources within the sector which also to a large extent is influenced by political setting. The policy preference of maize has led service support to the agriculture discriminate against the growing of other equally rewarding crops. As a result, a biased and disproportionate agriculture emerged that was dominated by growing of maize, unfortunately encouraged even in areas that are not geographically suitable for its production (Saasa, 1996).
