The voice of the church on matters of gender in Zambia: addressing ourselves to issues of gender injustice and gender based violence

The church mother bodies of Zambia, including the Council of Churches of Zambia, Evangelical Fellowship of Zambia (EFZ) and Zambia Episcopal Conference (ZEC), have been consulting and reflecting on issues of gender and good governance and acknowledge that gender inequity and gender based violence are issues of concern to Zambian society and within our church groupings. We acknowledge that in some cases the churches have been insensitive to gender based violence and insensitive to gender and power imbalances. We issue this document with the aim of addressing gender injustice and gender based violence.
