AGP Executive Report

Last update: 14 minutes ago

Eurobond Debate: Zambia’s move to buy back about US$1.3bn in Eurobonds after a “successful” debt restructure is drawing sharp pushback, with critics arguing the deal is costly and shifts burdens to future budgets. Environment & Mining Justice: World Environment Day spotlights Kabwe’s lead pollution and renewed calls for tougher action against companies licensed to extract from toxic waste, while Caritas Zambia urges climate action that also delivers justice for the poor. Energy & Industry Regulation: ZEMA has approved 103 development projects across mining, energy, manufacturing and recycling, including solar and waste-to-fuel initiatives, as green growth remains a policy priority. Trade & Logistics Skills: DHL launched the DHL Academy of Humanitarian Logistics to train local responders in customs, dangerous goods handling and safety, while Smart Hands Africa added Supermicro services across multiple African markets including Zambia. Tourism Push: President Hichilema used ZATEX to underline tourism’s role in jobs and diversification, with Zambia and Zimbabwe positioning themselves as “co-opetitors” rather than rivals. Education for Food Security: Government launched the Presidential Irrigation Initiative for Schools to boost food security and STEM learning through school-based irrigation and innovation. Health Access: World Clubfoot Day in Lusaka heard that about 808 children are born with clubfoot annually, but only around 40% receive treatment—driving calls for early diagnosis and timely care. Regional Cooperation: Zambia and Zimbabwe plan floating buoys on Lake Kariba to reduce arrests and vessel seizures caused by unclear boundaries.
