Download or read book Zambia Country Assistance Review written by Gladstone G. Bonnick and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws on country case studies to focus on the environmental implications of economywide policy reforms undertaken at the sectoral or macroeconomic level. Although the emphasis is upon economic policies, other noneconomic measures are also relevant, such as social, institutional, and legal actions. The main feature of most policy reforms directed at various levels of economic decisionmaking are price changes designed to promote efficiency and reduce waste. This report reinforces the view that policies that address price-related distortions can contribute to both economic and environmental goals (win-win policy reforms). A recurring theme in the case studies is that the potential for achieving parallel gains in conventional economic, social, and environmental goals is often present when economywide reforms attempt to improve macroeconomic stability, increase efficiency, and alleviate poverty. However, in important cases these potential gains cannot be realized unless complementary environmental and social measures are carried out.

Download or read book Introduction to Zambia written by Gilad James, PhD and published by Gilad James Mystery School. This book was released on with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zambia, also known as the Republic of Zambia, is a South African nation located in the Southern African region. It is bordered by Angola to the west, Tanzania to the northeast, Mozambique to the southeast, Zimbabwe to the south, Namibia to the southwest, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the northwest. The country has a population of around 18 million people and its capital city is Lusaka. Zambia is primarily a mining country, with copper being its major export. The country has also made strides in developing its tourism industry, with attractions such as Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, and several national parks that promote wildlife conservation and eco-tourism. Despite its natural resources and potential for development, Zambia remains one of the poorest countries in the world, with a high level of poverty, unemployment, and income inequality. However, in recent years, the government has initiated several programs aimed at reducing poverty, improving access to education and healthcare, and diversifying the economy.
Download or read book DFID s Programme in Zambia written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: International Development Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-09-06 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Zambia has enjoyed significant economic growth in the last decade, it remains one of the least-developed countries in the world, ranking 164 out of 187 countries in the 2011 UN Human Development. The country is seriously off track on the poverty Millennium Development Goal (MDG1) and inequality remains very high. Women suffer disproportionately; violence against women is widespread and maternal mortality rates (MDG5) are high. The foremost challenge for the Zambian economy is to spread wealth to rural areas and the Committee welcomes DFID's proposed rural markets development programme, which seeks to increase the productivity of poor smallholder farmers by strengthening markets for inputs and crops. Lack of access to reproductive health services is one of the key reasons maternal mortality is high. The report recommends that DFID encourage the Zambian Government to allow clinicians other than doctors, including nurses and midwives, to be trained to provide Long-Acting and Permanent Method contraception. DFID should focus its efforts on rural areas and young people. Secondary, tertiary and vocational education should also be prioritised in DFID's education expenditure. There is a particular need for business education with a lack of competent middle management across the Zambian economy in the public and private sector. The report also highlights major inefficiencies in Zambia's public expenditure - which, if removed, could free up revenues to improve public services. The biggest of these is the maize subsidy
