GENDER DIVISION WELCOMES SUBCIZ AWARD

The Gender Division has commended the Standing Up for Boy Child Initiative Zambia (SUBCIZ) for its efforts to promote gender equality and inclusive development for both boys and girls. This follows a courtesy call by the organisation to present the Gender Equality and Inclusion Champion Award, which was conferred by South Africa’s Go Getters Movement Organisation on 23rd May, 2026 in recognition of collaborative efforts to advance gender equality across Africa.

SUBCIZ Founder and CEO, Ms. Mildred Chinyanta Nyirenda, dedicated the award to President Hakainde Hichilema for his commitment to ensuring that the boy child is not left behind. She noted that the organisation was established to address challenges affecting boys and young men, including mental health issues, substance abuse, poor academic performance, and high school dropout rates.

Speaking on behalf of Gender Division Permanent Secretary Mainga Kabika, Acting Permanent Secretary Andrea Habweza praised SUBCIZ for complementing government efforts to provide equal opportunities for all children regardless of gender. He reaffirmed government's commitment to a balanced approach to gender equity and pledged continued collaboration with stakeholders supporting the empowerment and development of both boys and girls.
