DESCRIPTION:This mapping project is part of a broader USAID campaign which
  aims to help Zambia shift more power to its local communities. By empower
 ing local Zambian citizens\, this will allow them to prioritize services t
 hat will have immediate and positive impacts on their daily lives\, such a
 s reduced waiting times in health clinics\, better lighting\, or improved 
 solid waste management.\nBy mapping buildings and roads you are supporting
  the ability for local Zambians to identify where these services are neede
 d\, and providing an evidence base for them to seek future public or priva
 te sector support.\nExisting gender dynamics in Zambia make equitable part
 icipation in this shift of power to local communities challenging. To coun
 ter this\, the campaign aims to increase the capability of women and girls
  to realize their social\, political and economic advancement at the local
  level. In addition\, the campaign aims to reduce gender disparities in ac
 cess to and control over local opportunities and services.
