This document summarizes the work of the Citizens Economic Empowerment Commission (CEEC) in Zambia. It provides statistics on their program including 4,300 jobs created, a focus on increased Zambian ownership, and lessons learned. The CEEC has focused on broad-based empowerment through a value chain approach and cluster prioritization. They have invested in rural areas and supported industries like dairy, honey, pineapple, soybeans, rice, palm oil, fish, groundnuts, poultry, beef, cassava, and timber across Zambia's 10 provinces. Future potential projects highlighted include a copper industrial park in Solwezi, a rice brand in Chinsali, and tourism upgrades in Livingstone
