etter parents, workers and citizens of Zambia. In our work to support access to education, Cumacatu works with communities and caregivers, by providing trainings and support at the grassroots level in:

• Financial Literacy and Management (Economic empowerment); training local communities on how they can make thoughtful and informed decisions about their finances and how best they can develop sustainable money generating activities.
• Human Rights: sharing information with communities on basic human rights that all are entitled to despite their religion, tribe, political affiliation or standing in society for a holistic approach to development.

Empowering Women, Transforming Communities!

We recently had the privilege of conducting a Basic Financial Literacy Training for an inspiring group of women preparing for Constituency Development Funds (CDF).

These women, the backbone of their families and communities, came together to learn vital skills to manage resources, budget wisely, and invest in opportunities that will uplift their households.

This training equips women with the confidence and knowledge to make informed financial decisions that will create lasting change.

A big thank you to these incredible women for their dedication and to all our partners and supporters who make this work possible.

A hands on approach to learning and information sharing on breast cancer with the wonderful community in Mabo K***a; about 47Km from Samfya town. We were lucky to catch the women on their antenatal day and worked through what you need to feel for during your self examination. Health personnel were on hand to encourage the women to seek medical and professional advice as early as possible.
