Donors and Partners

Caritas Czech Republic has a long-term cooperation with a number of important donors. Because of this, we can implement humanitarian and development programs in the chosen countries. Which organizations are involved and how do they participate in our projects? 


Czech Development Agency (CzechAid)

Since Zambia Country Office was established in 2013, the Czech Development Agency has been one of the main donors and thanks to the long-lasting relationship with CzechAid, we have been able to implement several projects aimed at supporting medium scale farmers and enhancing food production and security.

Through the support of CzechAid, CCR has been working with farmers and cooperatives in Western and Central Provinces of Zambia under the Agribusiness for LIFE project, with the aim of building their capacity, develop value chains and facilitate market linkages and access to financial services.

In 2019 and 2020, CCR had the opportunity to enhance the already existing interventions under UNHCR and World Food Program by securing additional funds from Czech Aid.

In 2020, Czech Aid funded a multi-sectoral intervention meant to prevent and mitigate effects of Corona Virus Pandemic in Western and Lusaka Provinces of Zambia by supporting the establishment of a Consortium of three organizations, led by CCR.
