dc.description | Because of this critical situation, the JCTR expresses strong compassion for and solidarity with the suffering people in the country. We pledge to redouble our efforts to promote a just response to meet their needs. We call upon all political parties, churches, NGOs, international partners, government offices and political figures to commit themselves to meeting the crisis as their number one priority in the weeks ahead. | en |
dc.description.abstract | Zambia has a vast potential in almost all sectors to advance the quality of life of its people. We need not and should not be facing the current socio-economic problems of hunger, loss of value of the Kwacha, high cost of living, etc. says the Jesuit Centre for Theological Reflection (JCTR). These difficulties in the midst of massive potential are a reflection of a lack of priority setting and adhering to those priorities, inadequacies in policy design, failure in programme implementation, etc. Obviously, such a situation must be addressed in more pragmatic and holistic ways. There must be change in the way we have been doing things as a country. | en |
