People's Participation for Sustainable Interventions - PPSI

People’s Participation for Sustainable Intervention (PPSI) is a youth organization founded in 2019 to advance the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Zambia especially through the engagement of youths and women. PPSI, uses the army of youth and women to implement sustainable projects and avoid misdirecting youth’s energies to unprofitable ventures and vices that are bound to take the world backwards. The organization believes that young people have the energy, creativity and will to champion the implementation of sustainable development goals both in Zambia and abroad. Further, it also believes that when women are empowered and knowledgeable, the whole family benefits. PPSI’s mission is therefore to place women and youth at the center of sustainable development. PPSI uses the triple bottom line approach to implement several SDGs.
