Today, we celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Kenneth Kaunda (KK), a true champion of inclusion and human dignity 🇿🇲

KK was not only Zambia’s founding father, but also a pioneer for disability rights. He established the Zambia Council for the Handicapped now known as the Zambia Agency for Persons with Disabilities (ZAPD) laying the foundation for advocacy, support, and empowerment for persons with disabilities across the country.

In a bold and historic move, he also appointed the first visually impaired Cabinet Minister, Hon. Lazarus Tembo, and nominated him as a Member of Parliament demonstrating that leadership is defined by ability, not limitation.

KK’s vision reminds us that true development leaves no one behind. As we honor his legacy, may we continue to build a more inclusive Zambia where every voice matters and every person has the opportunity to thrive.

Climate change is deepening social inequalities across Africa, disproportionately affecting women, youth, older persons, informal settlement dwellers, and persons with disabilities (PWD). Disability often intersects with other forms of marginalisation, yet remains underrepresented in climate policy, planning, and response.
Within the Climate and Development Knowledge Network (CDKN)’s Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) work, disability is recognised as a critical dimension requiring focused attention. PWD are frequently excluded from decision-making, adaptation programmes, and early warning systems, while also facing significant barriers during climate-related emergencies and recovery efforts.
Co-hosted by CDKN and the Norwegian Federation of Organisations of Persons with Disabilities (FFO), this event will bring together practitioners, researchers, and disability-led organisations to share experiences, strategies, and lessons. It aims to strengthen the integration of disability within GESI-responsive, locally led climate action across Africa.
