Enlight Abilities

Recently, Pastor Andreas Sohl, Director of AG Freiwilligendienste im BFP in Germany, visited their long-time partner, Enlight Abilities Organization, as part of the Worldwide Volunteers Program. The visit was for a new volunteer program under the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs, placing young German volunteers on projects related to agriculture, art, and nature conservation.

Enlight Abilities was tasked with identifying new partners, and one potential partner identified is Kauzu Game Ranch in Chipata.

Today, CEO Miyoba Hamuhuma followed up on this partnership and also shared with Mr. Patrick Chirwa aka Teleka details of another upcoming project on skills development and cross-border trade. This project targets traders with disabilities and is in partnership with an organization in New York, USA.

Mr. Chirwa, skilled in arts and crafts, has pledged to train youths with disabilities in the arts and promote inclusive tourism at his ranch. Through this partnership, he hopes to see more children with disabilities access his facility.

The two organizations have agreed to work together to make the ranch a dedicated facility for arts training.

Today, we proudly celebrate 8 years of Enlight Abilities!
For the past 8 years, Enlight Abilities has remained committed to empowering children, youths, and persons with disabilities through inclusion, advocacy, education, mental health support, accessibility, and community transformation. What started as a vision to create a barrier-free society has grown into a movement of hope, dignity, and equal opportunities for the most vulnerable in our communities.

We are grateful to our dedicated team, volunteers, partners, donors, parents, and every community member who has walked this journey with us. Your support has helped change lives and restore hope to many families.

As we celebrate this milestone, we renew our commitment to building an inclusive Zambia where every person, regardless of ability, can live with dignity and reach their full potential.

Happy 8th Anniversary to Enlight Abilities!

My body belongs to me.

Every child, including children with disabilities, has the right to safety, dignity, and to say no.

At Enlight Abilities, *Child Safeguarding* is one of our core pillars. We believe teaching body autonomy is fundamental to protecting children and building truly inclusive communities.

Let’s raise a generation that knows their rights.

Happy Kenneth Kaunda Day, Zambia!

At Enlight Abilities, we pause today to celebrate and appreciate President Kenneth Kaunda — a father of the nation who embraced disability not by words, but with real action!

KK taught us that true leadership means leaving no one behind. He believed it. He lived it. From policy to practice, he opened doors for persons with disabilities to learn, work, and lead.

Though he is gone, he is dearly missed but his spirit of unity and inclusion still guides our mission every single day.

Let’s honor KK not just with remembrance, but by continuing to build a Zambia that is accessible for all.
