“Out of the Shadow for Good, Project Launch”

In a landmark moment for Zambia’s inclusive development, Cheshire Homes Society of Zambia (CHSZ), in partnership with the Liliane Foundation, Africa Albinism Network, and local implementing partners, proudly launched the “Out of the Shadows for Good” project. This ambitious initiative aims to eradicate the heinous acts of murder, mutilation, and exclusion faced by children and adults with albinism in Zambia.

Funded by the Dutch Postcode Lottery, this project exemplifies the transformative power of global solidarity. The Liliane Foundation, as the lead partner, brings invaluable expertise and maintains crucial relationships with the donor.

The launch event united partners and government line ministries in a shared commitment to justice and inclusion. Honorable ministers, senior officials, and stakeholders gathered to reaffirm their dedication to protecting the rights and dignity of persons with albinism.

This project seeks to dismantle harmful myths, stigma, and discrimination surrounding albinism. By promoting inclusive education, healthcare, and social services, CHSZ and its partners will create a safer, more equitable environment for persons with albinism.

CHSZ extends gratitude to:

  • The Dutch Postcode Lottery for generous funding.
  • Liliane Foundation for leadership and guidance.
  • Africa Albinism Network for expertise and advocacy.
  • Local implementing partners for dedication and commitment.
  • The Government of the Republic of Zambia for unwavering support.

As we embark on this transformative journey, we invite all Zambians to join us in shining a light on inclusion, justice, and hope for persons with albinism.
