1 Republic of Zambia SIXTH NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT plan 2011 2015 SUSTAINED ECONOMIC GROWTH AND POVERTY REDUCTION JANUARY 2011 SIXTH NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT plan 2011 2015 i FOREWORD The SIXTH NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT plan (SNDP,) which covers the period 2011 2015, charts an ambitious path to transform the lives of Zambians. ThisPlan is the successor to the Fifth NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT plan (FNDP), 2006 2010, the first in the series of medium-term plans aimed at making Zambia a prosperous middle-income country by 2030 . The SNDP was developed through a consultative process and provides a comprehensive medium-term strategy for an all inclusive DEVELOPMENT agenda.

2 It builds on the achievements and lessons learnt during the implementation of the FNDP. During the FNDP period, Zambia managed to achieve significant growth averaging percent. Despite this achievement, the nation still faced a number of challenges particularlyin the areas of infrastructure, human DEVELOPMENT and effects of the global financial crisis. In this regard, the theme of the SNDP is Sustained economic growth and poverty reduction . This will be achieved through acceleratedinfrastructureand human DEVELOPMENT , enhanced economic growth and diversification,and promotion of rural DEVELOPMENT . Delivering DEVELOPMENT in the country requires concerted efforts and commitment of all stakeholders.

3 I,therefore, urge all Zambians from all walks of life to be fully committed and participate in the DEVELOPMENT process of the country. I call upon the NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT Coordinating Committee (NDCC), Sector Advisory Groups (SAGs), Provincial DEVELOPMENT Coordinating Committees (PDCCs), District DEVELOPMENT Coordinating Committees (DDCCs), Area DEVELOPMENT Committees (ADCs), Cooperating Partners, Civil Society Organizations, Faith-Based Organizations and the ordinary Zambians to be pillars in the implementation, supervision and monitoring of progress in the various sectors. I am convinced that through our joint effort during the next five years, we will be able to achieve the objectives of the SNDP.

4 I have every confidence in Zambia s ability to implement this plan efficiently and effectively.
