Vision Zambia Initiative

Earlier this week we took part in the Financial Management Training, held at Tifanny’s Canon, under the Water Voices United Project.

The training which drew participants from CSO’s working in WASH, had modules ranging from Audit Readiness and Legal Compliance to Financial Policies and Procedures as well as Sustainability and Financial Strategy.

As VZI, we are grateful to have been considered for this training and given the platform to expand our knowledge as we grow. The training will also help us improve our internal controls and risk management.

We are even more grateful to NGO WASH Forum and SNV, who are co-funded by European Union and The Danish People’s Aid, for this highly insightful opportunity that will result in better budgeting and planning of our activities.

Menstrual Hygiene Day – May 28

Every year on May 28, the world marks Menstrual Hygiene Day to raise awareness about the importance of menstrual care and the challenges faced by those without access to safe products.

Access to menstrual products is key to helping girls and women manage their periods with dignity, free from shame or stigma. Sadly, many girls still lack these essentials, affecting their education and well-being.

This month, Vision Zambia Initiative aims to support 100 girls in Luyando community with menstrual products and awareness.

We invite well-wishers to support this noble cause in any way they can.
Together, let’s keep girls in school and empowered.

This week we joined other CSO’s in attending the Public Resource Accountability Training organized by GIZ under the EnACT project.

Our first takeaway has been reinforcing the role we play in ensuring communities hold authorities accountable for provision of services especially water, sanitation and hygiene which directly affects women and girls’ health and productivity.
Secondly, the role that we play in fighting corruption in public service delivery and how best we can work with the Anti Corruption Commission.

We are grateful for this insightful platform.
