We are Empowered Communities Helping Others - ECHO
ECHO is a Zambian local NGO registered under the Registrar of Societies. ECHO was established in 2019 and has been operating in Zambia since then.
Our work is inspired by the willingness and potential of local Zambia communities to fight poverty, inequity and become more resilient using local knowledge and
resources.
