Motto
Ideas for a better Zambia
Mission
Our mission is to create a better Zambia one idea at a time. We do this by :
- Placing economic thinking at the heart of policy debate by providing economically grounded solutions to the social and economic problems facing Zambia.
- Acting as the economic knowledge archive (research and data) on economic issues pertaining to Zambia
- Supporting the emergence of young Zambian thinkers in the field of economics, business and other related areas by giving them a platform to share their ideas for a better tomorrow.
Values
Our vision is underpinned by the following values :
Integrity – putting the obligations of Zambian people above personal interests
Honesty – being truthful and open in our analysis and dealing with the public
Objectivity – basing information and new ideas on rigorous analysis of the evidence
Impartiality – acting solely according to the merits of issue at hand and without regard to political aspiration
