Our partnership standard

Four questions before any agreement.

Every partnership we sign, whatever its size, must answer these before the first kwacha moves.

What road safety risk are we addressing?

Who is most exposed to that risk?

What practical action will reduce the risk?

How will we show what changed?

If a project cannot answer all four, it is not ready for serious funding, and we will say so, to you, before you spend.
The terms we offer

What every ZRST partner receives, and what we ask in return.

A written scope before work startsYour role, our role, the sites, the budget lines and the evidence framework, agreed on paper first.
Honest reporting, both directionsWhere a measure works, the numbers will show it. Where it falls short, the report will say so and explain what changes next.
Proper credit, protectedYour contribution named accurately in everything we publish, and never claimed by us alone.
Accounts you can openExpenditure reported against the agreed budget, under a trust whose audited statements are already public.

In return we ask for three things: patience with public approval processes, because we do not bypass the authorities who own Zambia’s roads; appetite for honest results rather than guaranteed ones; and a named person on your side who can make decisions. Partnerships fail on missing counterparts more often than on missing money.

Tell us the problem, and we will tell you honestly whether we can help.

One message through our contact form is enough to begin. The most useful first messages tell us four things:

  • The location or community you care about.
  • The road safety problem as you see it.
  • The road users most affected.
  • The kind of support you can provide, funding, commissioning, technical or institutional.
