The most vulnerable urban population is particularly hard hit and many have lost their income due to cutbacks and a shrinking economy. Zambia has a high rate of youth unemployment (22 per cent), which is above the average in the region. Sida supports projects that contribute to increased social security and facilitate people’s access to decent jobs. Here are some examples of projects Sida supports:\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\n",[530,533],{"cc_core_business-aid-tabs-development-subsection__title":531,"cc_core_business-aid-tabs-development-subsection__content":532,"cc_core_business-aid-tabs-development-subsection__files":5},"Innovative vocational training that creates jobs","\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sida is supporting a venture between Volvo, the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) and the Northern Technical College, resulting in the launch of a new vocational training course.

One example is the Girls’ Education and Women’s Empowerment and Livelihood Project (GEWEL), which is a partnership between the World Bank and the Zambian government. It supports girls in the poorest households to continue their education, and to create a supportive school environment for girls to complete their education. For example, households with adolescent girls receive grants for books, school supplies, uniforms and boarding costs. In 2023, 80 474 girls were reached by this support. These girls are less likely to be married off and become teenage mothers. Educated mothers are better able to provide for their families, which benefits society and future generations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fopenaid.se\u002Fen\u002Factivities\u002FSE-0-SE-6-12888A0101-ZMB-16012\">About GEWEL on Openaid\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n",{"cc_core_business-aid-tabs-development__icon":526,"cc_core_business-aid-tabs-development__title":537,"cc_core_business-aid-tabs-development__content":538,"cc_core_business-aid-tabs-development__files":5,"cc_core_business-aid-tabs-development__subsections":5},"Governance of Sida's development cooperation with Zambia","\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.government.se\u002Finternational-development-cooperation-strategies\u002F2024\u002F04\u002Fstrategy-for-swedens-development-cooperation-with-zambia-20242028\">Strategy for Sweden’s development cooperation with Zambia 2024-2028 on the Swedish government’s website\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.regeringen.se\u002Frapporter\u002F2019\u002F12\u002Fmanskliga-rattigheter-demokrati-och-rattsstatens-principer-i-zambia\u002F\">About human rights, democracy and the rule of law in Zambia on the Swedish Government’s website\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Ful>\n",4047,"publish","Zambia","zambia","2024-10-11T00:00:00","2020-10-16T14:27:29",{"contact":4,"type":455,"published":544,"updated":543},{"sums":547,"maxSum":549,"oaLink":551,"year":471},[548,550],{"sum":549,"label":473},451772446.486229,{"sum":549,"label":474},"https:\u002F\u002Fopenaid.se\u002Fen\u002Fcontributions?year=2025&agency=SE-6&recipient=ZM"]
