LuCAC engaged with phase one of the An Urgent Situation project and immediately recognised the relevance of the topic to its own location of Zambia. LuCAC reached out to the partners, asking to share knowledge and collaborate - hoping to develop a project path at LuCAC highlighting the situation and issues in Africa. This demonstrates the relevance and impact of the project so far. With this new partner the project increases its reach, global relevance and solidarity. LuCAC will work in dialogue with the project partners to develop its own programme and contribute to furthering the project. It will contribute to the publication and host a publication launch.
