Strengthening Nursing and Midwifery Education through Collaboration
As Saicrio, we are proud to be part of the Solidarmed Workshop, where we are conducting Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with key stakeholders shaping the future of nursing education in Zambia.
Our evaluation brings together:
✔ Students, lecturers, and alumni from the 10 provincial nursing and midwifery colleges
✔ Public health nursing experts from WHO, ICN, and ECSACOM
✔ Training institution administrators and regulatory bodies
✔ Healthcare professionals from the Ministry of Education (Healthy Learners), Ministry of Mines (Public Health & Safety), and Ministry of Local Government & Housing (Local Council Public Health Departments)
Yesterday, we had an insightful FGD with college heads, exchanging ideas on how to strengthen training, improve public health outcomes, and build resilient health systems.

Together, we are working towards a stronger, more responsive nursing and midwifery workforce for Zambia.

A Special Thank You

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who took part in our online survey. We would like to thank the Treatment Advocacy and Literacy Campaign (TALC) in partnership with the Zambia Network For Young People Living with HIV - ZNYP+

Your voices and experiences are invaluable in highlighting the real impact of the recent PEPFAR funding cuts on people living with HIV in Zambia. From challenges in accessing medication and lab tests to the psychological effects of uncertainty, your input will guide stronger advocacy and evidence-based solutions.

Together, we are amplifying the voices of communities, strengthening health literacy, and ensuring no one is left behind in the fight for equitable access to HIV care.
