We are launching a series of country highlights to showcase the progress and impact of initiatives across the globe. Each spotlight demonstrates how GIIF partners with local insurers, governments, and communities to expand access to inclusive insurance, strengthen financial resilience, and empower vulnerable populations to better manage risks and thrive in the face of climate and economic challenges. These highlights also provide a valuable opportunity to reflect on lessons learned and identify areas to improve our work and maximize impact.
Zambia Country Highlights
The first spotlight features Zambia, where GIIF has been strengthening the agricultural insurance sector since 2016. By supporting private insurers, building capacity for regulators, and integrating digital solutions, GIIF has helped provide weather-index insurance to nearly 20 million people, including smallholder farmers and women who face persistent barriers to financial inclusion. These initiatives have enabled farmers to protect their livelihoods, increase productivity, and access critical resources under programs like the government’s Farmer Input Support Program (FISP).
