Report from John T. Njovu. The main objective of this visit was to continue researching and collecting on local stories that would promote indigenous evaluators’ voices. The Zambian network was working on a documentary to cover the Tande and Nsenga ethnic groups in Zambia and Zimbabwe. Previous visits to Nyalugwe chiefdom in Zambia had been carried out to document its history and social and economic realities from an indigenous perspective.
