Mike Mposha, MP and Ambassador of the European Union to Zambia H.E. Karolina Stasiak.  The EU has been a key partner in supporting Zambia’s Green Growth Strategy and the enactment of the Green Economy and Climate Change Act.

The partners also discussed environmental governance, including the EU-Zambia Forest Partnership - a cooperation platform that promotes forest conservation, biodiversity protection, sustainable livelihoods, and green job creation, in alignment with the EU’s Global Gateway Strategy and Zambia’s national priorities on climate action. Zambia is one of only six countries globally to have concluded such partnership with the European Union. To boost its implementation, the EU and Zambia established a political dialogue on Forest Partnership promoting effective coordination among all key Ministries and governmental agencies involved in forest, land, and natural resources management.
