I have a PhD in Climate Change and Sustainable Development from the University of Bolton, UK. In my study, I analyzed state and non-state actors' approaches to climate change interventions in Zambia. Basically, I investigated the stakeholder-coordination nexus and brought out valuable lessons for public policy, in general, and Africa's (well firstly Zambia’s) sustainability in view of climate change, specifically.
My current field of work revolves around humanitarian relief delivery, development planning and public policy. Over the years, I have made significant contributions (of course by working in teams), such as participation in formulating Zambia’s 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th National Development Plans; developing the institutional/coordination framework for Zambia’s first ever National Policy on Climate Change; providing critical input into the creation and operationalization of Zambia’s National Designated Authority Project Office of the Green Climate Fund (GCF); and contributed to Zambia’s 2023/2024 Acute Food Insecurity analysis and report formulation, among others.
