Home Publications Speeches Press Releases ... Zambia Electronic Clearing House Limited BANK OF ZAMBIA The History of the Bank of Zambia Before Central Banking The Establishment of the Central Bank The Changing Roles of the Central Bank Before Central Banking A semblance of central banking started in Zambia through the establishment in 1938 of the Salisbury (Harare) based Southern Rhodesia Currency Board. Its jurisdiction extended to Northern Rhodesia and Nyasaland because of a monetary agreement that existed between Southern Rhodesia and these territories. In 1954, the Southern Rhodesia Currency Board was renamed the Currency Board of Rhodesia and Nyasaland when its ownership changed from the Southern Rhodesia government to the Federal government of Rhodesia and Nyasaland. Currency boards are not central banks and they do not offer banking services. Their sole function, in contrast to the multiple functions of central banks, is to issue currency. In the case of the Central African Currency Board, and its predecessor they issued the Central African pounds which were 100 percent backed by pound sterling reserves in London. In other words, if the territories' foreign exchange reserves rose, the Board increased its issue of local currency. If they declined, the local currency issued also had to be reduced. With time the Currency Boards existance was hotly debated with some people saying that it needed to be replaced by a central bank. At the time, one of the popular views held by economists was that monetary policy could play a direct role in promoting economic growth primarily through credit expansion. The strict rules on monetary creation under the currency board, which made it conditional on developments in the balance of payments, did not accomodate discretionary credit expansion. In general, it was also considered more preferable to have a central bank which could conduct monetary policy and counter unfavourable cyclical developments.

From 1953 to 1963, the country found itself forming the northern part of the Central African Federation, essentially a pale form of apartheid, which enjoyed no support whatsoever among the black population. The colonial authorities ceded independence in 1964. The pre-independence elections were won by Kaunda's United National Independence Party. The country soon became involved in the war in Southern Rhodesia. Kaunda closed Zambia's southern border and gave safe haven to cadres from Joshua Nkomo's ZAPU party and its associated guerrilla army, ZIPRA. Relations with the Zimbabweans have naturally improved since that country became independent in 1980 and Kaunda's foreign policy focused elsewhere. Kaunda subsequently became a major regional statesman. He played a major part in the initiatives leading to independence in Namibia and South Africa and, in the 1990s, chaired both the Organisation of African Unity and the 'front-line' group of Southern African states confronting the South African apartheid regime. He was also involved in the political settlement in Angola.

DRAFT Southeastern Regional Seminar in African Studies A Brief History 15 January 1999 JOSEPH C. MILLER University of Virginia South Asianists had earlier achieved a considerable degree of organization in the region, largely through the outreach activities of the National Defense Education Act Title VI center at the University of Virginia, led by historian Professor Walter Hauser. There was also a Southern Atlantic States Association for Asian and African Studies (SASAAAS), oriented more toward teaching and public outreach than the SSRC Seminar program, but nonetheless illustrative of the possibilities of a regional organization in the enthusiastic participation it enjoyed. There was also interest in forming a less structured Southern Association of Africanists in the region, led by Ann Dunbar and others in central North Carolina, and focused on teaching outreach. Ann Dunbar organized the last meeting of the Seminar's first year at the University of North Carolina on April 20, 1974, focused on discussion of Rodney's How Europe Underdeveloped Africa, with copies provided to all members. Akpan (South Carolina State College) and Nyang presented papers, with comments by Sagay and Thornton. (See report to SSRC, Appendix IId.) Expenses totaled $308.99. On the strength of the benefits that all participants felt they had gained from the Seminar's first year, and indications of continued sponsorship from several institutions in the region, the group resolved to apply for an extension of the Seminar's SSRC funding. All the papers from the year were filed with the Library of Congress through the chief its Exchange and Grant Division (Nathan R. Einhorn).

The major waves of Bantu -speaking immigrants—the Bantu expansion —began in the 12th century ,the Tonga people are first to settle in Zambia and are believed to have come from the far east near the big sea which can be around the Red sea where human civilisation started and with the greatest influx between the late and early 19th centuries . They came primarily from the Luba and Lunda tribes of southern Democratic Republic of Congo and northern Angola but were joined in the 19th century by Ngoni peoples from the south. By the latter part of that century, the various peoples of Zambia were largely established in the areas they currently occupy.

Home Program History Program Objectives Target Groups ... Discussion Forum A brief history of the SIYB Regional Programme SIYB originated from business management training materials called "Look After Your Firm" which had been developed by the Swedish Employers' Confederation. During the late 1970's, the Swedish International Development Agency (SIDA) funded an ILO project which adapted these materials to suit the needs of small entrepreneurs in developing countries. This new material was named “Improve Your Business” (IYB). At the same time, the ILO developed a specific training methodology, which was based on participatory learning and with an action oriented approach. The IYB training materials and methodology together became the IYB programme. 1983: IYB is introduced to Africa In 1983, the ILO established the IYB Regional Project Office for Eastern Africa in Nairobi, Kenya

The economy has been dominated by its copper industry and is characterised by a modern and urban-oriented sector on either side of the railroad to the Copperbelt and a vast rural agricultural sector. After Zambia’s independence from Britain in 1964 the country was ruled by Kenneth Kaunda's UNIP party which introduced its own brand of "African Socialism". Economic activity was dominated by the state, all major businesses were nationalised and government became directly involved in their management. In spite of grave economic problems and dependence on the copper industry for national revenue advances were made in the provision of social services, especially in the areas of health and education. A new government under former Trade Union leader, Frederick Chiluba, came to power in 1991with the Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD), a party that has recently retained power in controversial elections held in 2001 with a new leader, Levy Mwanawasa. The MMD sought to re-establish economic stability and an effective market economy through structural reforms. A privatisation programme reduced the role of the state in the economy from over 80 percent before 1991 to less than 30 percent today.

Embassy Press Language Choose your country Home Norway-Zambia Development Cooperation Facts ... Visas SEARCH Facts S¡mi history and policy In his speech during the official opening of the S¡mediggi (S¡mi Parliament) in 1997, HM King Harald V emphasized that both the S¡mi people and the Norwegians are an integral part of Norwegian society, and apologized for the manner in which the S¡mi people had been treated in the past: “The state of Norway was founded on the territory of two peoples - the S¡mi people and the Norwegians. S¡mi history is closely intertwined with Norwegian history. Today, we express our regret on behalf of the state for the injustice committed against the S¡mi people through its harsh policy of Norwegianization.” At the end of the 1800s, the Norwegian authorities imposed a strict policy of Norwegianization on the S¡mi people and national minorities. Towards the late 1930s, a more positive minority policy perspective began to emerge in relation to the S¡mi people. In 1956, the Ministry of Church and Education appointed a committee to examine S¡mi issues. The committee’s report, completed in 1959, proposed a new policy that represented a complete shift away from the Norwegianization and assimilation policy. Building on these recommendations, the Ministry submitted a Report to the Storting in 1962-63 that formed the basis for the first comprehensive parliamentary debate regarding the fundamental principles governing Norwegian S¡mi policy. Measures that were subsequently implemented to preserve and develop settlement and economic activity in the S¡mi areas included the launching of the S¡mi Development Fund in 1974, and the establishment of the Reindeer Husbandry Agreement in 1976.
