It is very disheartening to imagine what has happened today to all USAID funded projects across the country and to imagine the negative impact of the US withdrawal is making us go insane . For example some USAID funded projects are :
Partners in USAID projects
Tetra Tech ARD: A prime partner in the Lusaka Province from 2018 to 2023
FHI 360: An implementer in the Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Partnerships and Learning for Sustainability (WASHPaLS) project
Global Environment & Technology Foundation (GETF): An implementer in the Water and Development Alliance (WADA) project
Save the Children: A partner in the Partners in Development project
Ideas 42: A partner in the Partners in Development project
Think Action: A partner in the Partners in Development project
Camber Collective (LMT): A partner in the Partners in Development project
Luapula Foundation: A partner in the Partners in Development project
Global Communities: A partner in the Emerging Farmers Partnership GDA project
Coreva Agriscience: A private sector partner in the Emerging Farmers Partnership GDA project
John Deere: A private sector partner in the Emerging Farmers Partnership GDA project
Copper Rose Zambia: A youth-led organization that partners with USAID in the MOMENTUM project .
PEPFAR also is funded by USAID and here is what we have lost and must quickly begin to do .
PEPFAR Zambia is the United States President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) program in Zambia. PEPFAR’s goal is to help Zambia eradicate AIDS by 2030.
What does PEPFAR do in Zambia?
HIV prevention, care, and treatment: PEPFAR provides funding for HIV prevention, care, and treatment programs
Other disease prevention and treatment: PEPFAR funds programs to prevent and treat other diseases, including malaria, tuberculosis, cervical cancer, and COVID-19
Family planning: PEPFAR increases access to family planning
Maternal and child health: PEPFAR improves maternal and child health
Nutrition: PEPFAR funds programs to improve nutrition
Gender-based violence: PEPFAR funds programs to prevent and respond to gender-based violence
Small grants: PEPFAR provides grants to community-based organizations that work to prevent HIV
How does PEPFAR operate in Zambia?
PEPFAR’s Country Operational Plan (COP) outlines the U.S. government’s annual investments in Zambia’s HIV response
PEPFAR’s Strategic Direction Summaries (SDS) summarize the COPs.
How do we navigate this critical moment with a leader like HH who never feel for people? you need a very compassionate and caring leader to go round this as Lungu did when we had COVID 19.
All workers in thousands are out including those who were working for PEPFAR at the embassy no one is left they have been flow back to he US and jibs terminated .
Trump says he is realigning his foreign Aid policy , think of how much ZRA will lose in PAYE , we are in a big problem 🙄 it’s actually a disaster.
