A single borehole can change the way children experience their childhood in rural areas. 13-year-old Joana, from Milange district in Zambézia province, now has access to clean water after the construction of a new borehole. The girl will no longer have to endure a two-hour walk to collect unsafe water. The borehole in Cadote Primary School is one of the 25 drilled in an equal number of schools in the provinces of Zambézia and Nampula, within the scope of Partnering for Sustainable Education Outcomes - PARES, funded by the McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition Program of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

World Vision's Education Inclusive Learning Programme Across the Lifecycle

Empowering Mokhotlong’s youth through Disaster Risk Reduction education, fostering resilience, preparedness, and community safety against climate hazards.

World Vision Southern Africa, in partnership with the Ministry of Health and the Global Fund, is implementing adolescent-friendly spaces (AFS) across Zambia to support young people in making informed Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR) decisions. Through the IMPACT+ model, a life skills approach integrating education, behavior change, and service-learning, over 36,000 out-of-school adolescents have been reached with SRH interventions, empowering them to navigate challenges like early pregnancy, HIV/AIDS, and peer pressure. By equipping peer educators and health workers with IMPACT+ skills, the initiative fosters safe spaces where adolescents can access SRHR education, receive guidance, and build confidence. With increased community involvement and government support, this model is paving the way for sustainable adolescent health and well-being in the region.
