Since 1992, CARE Zambia has been working with Government, NGOs, and the private sector to deliver a range of programs aimed at improving the lives of poor, vulnerable and socially excluded individuals with a focus on women and girls. We provide long-term development and economic empowerment to communities facing challenges like HIV and AIDS, poverty, gender inequality, environmental degradation, n
atural disasters and conflict. We place special focus on working alongside women because, equipped with the proper resources, women and girls have the power to help whole families and entire communities escape poverty. Women are at the heart of CARE's community-based efforts to improve basic education, prevent the spread of HIV, increase access to clean water and sanitation, expand economic opportunity and protect natural resources.
