Citizens’ Voices on the 2026 National Budget

October 17th, 2025 | Chipata

With support from ActionAid and TaxEd, Lizu Community Network convened a community symposium in Chipata to critically analyze the proposed 2026 National Budget.

This dialogue brought together over 70 citizens from across multiple wards in Chipata, creating a space for open discussion on national priorities and fiscal accountability.

Through the sessions, participants identified four key sectors requiring urgent government attention: Health, Agriculture, Education and Local Government

At Lizu, we remain committed to empowering citizens to demand accountability, engage constructively with civic leaders, and participate actively in Zambia’s development agenda.
