Zambesi Health Zambia
Who we are
We are Zambesi Health Zambia, a local NGO founded in 2019. We are made up of members of rural communities in southern Zambia and have first-hand knowledge of the challenges on the ground. Our aim is to promote health awareness and hygiene practices in our villages and to combat zoonoses, i.e. diseases that can be transmitted from animals to humans.
In cooperation with Zambesi Health Germany, we have already carried out many projects, training courses and workshops. The construction of a dairy has created sustainable structures. We work closely with our community members and use a bottom-up approach to directly address the most urgent needs. Donations to Zambesi Health help us to improve health services, prevent disease, provide education and empower disadvantaged groups in our villages.
Our association
We are Zambesi Health Zambia – a team of local steakholders. As locals, we have first-hand knowledge of the health challenges in our rural regions.
We are highly committed to improving healthcare, hygiene awareness and combating zoonoses. Our local knowledge helps us to develop needs-based solutions together with the villagers.

It's time to act!
The association is characterized by transparency, accountability and the direct use of resources to create sustainable solutions in healthcare.
The work of Zambesi Health e.V. to promote human and animal health in the Zambezi region has made significant progress. By producing educational material in comic form, available in local languages, we have improved education about zoonotic diseases and raised awareness of the dangers of revaccinated dogs in the communities.
