In the second phase of STDM implementation in Chamuka Chiefdom, 10 villages namely were issued with certificates of customary occupancy towards the improvement of tenure security on customary lands. This comes not so long after yet another issuance in October 2016 in Bulemu village, also located in Chamuka. The project owes its success to a vibrant and effective partnership between the GLTN/UN-Habitat and the Partners in Zambia who include the Government of Zambia, the Chamuka community, the leadership and guidance of His Royal Highness Chief Chamuka VI, and the implementing partners; People’s Process on Housing and Poverty in Zambia (PPHPZ) and its grassroots alliance partner; Zambia Homeless and Poor People’s Federation (ZHPPF) who are affiliated to Shack Dwellers International.
