PROJECT BACKGROUND

The Integrated Project on Empowering Girls and Youths for sustainable Development project wishes to build up on the supporting clusters with different enterprises for economic development in order to ensure that vulnerable and excluded young people, especially young women are resilient and food secure. By implementing these interventions, Zambia can create a more inclusive and resilient workforce that contributes to individual livelihoods as well as broader economic and social development of the country as it works to advance the rights of children and young people, and equality for girls and young women.

This is a buildup from the Girls Step project which targeted to empower an initial of 2 clusters with a total of 47 families with 470 goats. Agriculture and livestock production remain the primary and most viable means for economic development in rural Zambia. This view is supported by the Government’s social strategies advanced through the National Agriculture Policy which places livestock development as key to poverty reduction. Goats provide endless advantages over large livestock as they are resilient and easier to look after and can survive under harsh environments.
For this project in particular, the breeds identified as viable based on the recommendations from the Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock as well as the feedback from the need’s assessment conducted amongst beneficiaries are: Local indigenous breeds for the goats.
