Polio Awareness Matters – Let’s Protect Our Communities 💙

Hands of Mercy recently participated in a Ministry of Health Zambia briefing on the ongoing Polio Campaign, represented by Ms. Victoria Mupinde - Director Operations

Polio is a serious and highly infectious disease that can cause paralysis and even death. It spreads easily, especially in areas with poor sanitation and low vaccination coverage. With an outbreak currently in Zambia, we all have a role to play.

Here’s how we can all help:
✔️ Ensure children receive routine immunisation
✔️ Practice good hygiene at home and in public spaces
✔️ Encourage caregivers and parents to vaccinate children
✔️ Share accurate information within your community

📅 National Polio Campaign: 7th – 10th April

Let’s work together to protect our children, support our families, and keep our communities safe.

Bridging Generations Through Conservation 🌱

We were honored to host The Nature Conservancy Zambia at Hands of Mercy for an awareness session with our elderly beneficiaries. The visit created a beautiful moment of intergenerational learning and reflection.

Our elders shared powerful insights on how conservation was practiced in the past—planting trees, cutting only branches instead of entire trees to allow proper growth, regulating the hunting of animals, and protecting water sources. These traditional practices show that environmental stewardship has long been part of our communities.

The discussion also explored women and land ownership. Many shared how cultural systems, particularly the patrilineal structure, often limited women’s ability to own land unless through marriage. While women today are increasingly empowered to own land independently, the conversation also reminded us of the importance of balancing empowerment with strong family and community values.

We are deeply grateful to The Nature Conservancy Zambia for facilitating this meaningful dialogue and for donating assorted items worth K7,000 to support our elderly beneficiaries.

Moments like these remind us that wisdom from the past can guide sustainable practices for the future.
