The climate change agenda in Zambia National interests and the role of development cooperation

This working paper examines the climate change agenda in Zambia, focusing on the national disaster management and climate change framework, the role of development aid, and the central government's interests regarding climate change.

• International donors have been instrumental in shaping Zambia's climate change agenda and establishing the institutional framework for climate change and disaster management.
• The Zambian government's interests in climate change center on obtaining funding for civil service operations, managing political sensitivities surrounding food security and disasters, and mitigating risks to political stability and the national economy.
