Scotland Celebrates Zambia at 50!

Friends, it's almost upon us....Zambia's Tartan Big 50!:  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Zambian-Independence-Celebrations-Scotland-2014/700402376671073?fref=ts

We are ready for you and it's not too late to book your place:

There's a packed programme, including a health Workshop 
featuring top Zambian doctors talking on challenges and opportunities in Zambian healthcare at 50.  This is followed by an Indaba (discussion) about what the Zambian Diaspora 

and Friends of Zambia could usefully contribute.  We hope to come up with one or two specific initiatives to follow up.

Questions for you:

1) How can external Development groups better coordinate 
with the Zambian Government on healthcare delivery on the ground?
2) Is a health insurance system the best way forward in terms of funding Zambian healthcare?  What would that mean for the poorest elements of society, such as in remote Chitambo District villages? Please comment.  We'd love to hear from you.
