Welcome to the Permanent Mission of the Republic of Zambia to the United Nations in Geneva

Welcome to the website of the Permanent Mission of the Republic of Zambia to the United Nations and Other International Organizations in Geneva and Vienna. The Mission was established in 1993 and also doubles as an Embassy and Consulate accredited to the Confederation of Switzerland.  Multilateral engagement and cooperation with the United Nations, its entities and specialized agencies, as well as other international organizations headquartered and represented both in Geneva and Vienna, to promote and protect Zambia’s interests are central to the work of the Mission.  

The Permanent Mission represents Zambia in international meetings on a wide range of issues, including economic and trade matters, human rights, to humanitarian affairs and disarmament, health, Information Technology and Environment. The Mission actively cooperates in creating and maintaining a sense of belonging between and among United Nations Member States and consolidates Zambia’s reputation within the Community of States as a key player in maintaining international peace and security. Therefore, the Permanent Mission provides the vital diplomatic nexus between Zambia and other State and non-state actors in Geneva and Vienna.

This website will provide information about Zambia, with links to more detailed information on sectors such as Commerce, Mining, Immigration, Visas, Tourism, Energy, Investment, as well as the Zambian Constitution and Parliamentary affairs. In addition, the site will provide highlights of major events and developments at national, regional and global levels.  

It is, therefore, my sincere hope that you will find the information on this website useful.
