      <video:title>Zambia’s economy is rising… but why are people struggling?</video:title>
      <video:description>Zambia’s economy is showing strong signs of recovery, with inflation easing, key prices stabilizing, and a projected 6.4% GDP growth rate for 2026. The government calls it proof of sound economic management — but critics argue it’s an election‑year “fake recovery” that doesn’t reflect daily realities.#DWAfricaSocialMedia #DWAfricaWomen #DWAfricaLinkPodcast

      <video:title>Why Zambia&apos;s Customer Service is Broken | ZED101 PODCAST EP #34</video:title>
      <video:description>Have you ever felt frustrated by poor customer service in Zambia and just accepted it as the norm? You&apos;re not alone. On this episode of ZED101 Podcast, hosts Chanda Mwiko and Tanya Malama Fooks dive deep into The Service Trap, a widespread culture of mediocre customer service that is holding Zambia back.

We&apos;re going beyond simple complaints to tackle the core issue: why do we tolerate a system that doesn&apos;t respect the customer? From endless waits at restaurants to complaints that go nowhere, we share real-life examples and expose the low-bar culture that has become a self-perpetuating cycle.

But it&apos;s not just a minor inconvenience; this culture of complacency is a significant barrier to economic growth and innovation. We explore the painful truth about our &quot;toothless&quot; regulatory bodies like the CCPC and ask why a litigation culture, where businesses are held accountable doesn&apos;t exist.

This episode is a call to action. We challenge you, the consumer, to become an empowered advocate for your rights. We&apos;ll give you actionable steps to make your complaints count and discuss how businesses must shift from a &quot;product-first&quot; to a customer-centric mindset to survive. Tune in and join us as we demand better, because a thriving Zambia depends on it.</video:description>

      <video:description>Will the Kafue River disaster influence Zambia’s August 2026 elections?

Our Critical Minerals Editor, Obert Bore, revisits the crisis after the Sino-Metals spill to track new developments and what’s next. 

Farmers are suing for $80B; officials say impacts are overstated; on Weibo and WeChat, outrage is intense. 

In this follow-up, Obert hosts Emmanuel Matambo (Senior Researcher, University of Johannesburg) to explain what’s changed, why the government’s stance matters, and how Zambia’s courts and Copperbelt/Lusaka politics could shape the outcome of the general elections in 2026.</video:description>
