Company description
CRS IN ZAMBIA
Zambia is a peaceful landlocked country in Southern Africa with stunning natural beauty and a warm, welcoming culture. After its independence in 1964, the country became one of the fastest growing economies in Africa. Over fifty years later, however, Zambia is still suffering from high levels of poverty and inequality in part caused by two decades of floods, severe droughts, and a devastating AIDS epidemic.

More than 80% of the rural population lives below the poverty line, of which 63% struggle to live on less than $1.25 per day. Many rural families rely on subsistence farming and with limited access to farming inputs, credit or savings. Chronic food insecurity and malnutrition is widespread. Lack of access to adequate food and clean water stunts nearly half of Zambian  
Show more children under 5 years old. During the "hungry season," when food is scarce, many families eat only one meal a day. CRS Zambia works with its partners to strengthen community resilience to these shocks as well as to alleviate the underlying causes of chronic hunger, poverty and poor health.
