Overview

The Zambia CCG Network began in October 2022 as CCG’s third partner country network, with the Department of Geography and Environmental Studies of the University of Zambia (UNZA) leading as the institutional partner in the country. Through the Zambia country network, we collaborate with key policymakers in Zambia, along with leading domestic researchers from Zambian academic institutions.

In Zambia, we aim to empower the Government of the Republic of Zambia to devise and implement inclusive, low-emission, resilient economic policy. To reach this goal, we conduct a range of research and collaboration outputs, including co-creation workshops and capacity building events. To see more details about our activities, read more below.

The Zambia CCG Network Special interest Groups

The Zambia CCG Network is made up of Special Interest Groups (SIGs), which are populated by a group of country and CCG experts (academia, government, development banks, among others) that have a defined interest and/or expertise on a theme relevant to CCG research, and together, each SIG works collaboratively. The aim of a SIG is to catalyse a collaborative community of practice and identify areas of policy or innovation that could be bolstered by CCG resources and/or capacity.

The Zambia CCG Network currently contains five SIGs:

SIG1: Financing Low-Emission Futures in Zambia

SIG 2: Low-Emission Transport Scenarios

SIG 3: Energy System Scenarios for Zambia

SIG 4: Decentralised Energy Planning

SIG 5: Clean Cooking
