    Situated at the heart of central southern Africa, Zambia shares borders with eight countries resulting in significant movements of people including refugees and asylum seekers into its borders. To ensure that communities living in the resettlement sites of Meheba and Mayukwayukwa are fully integrated into national planning processes at all levels, the programme implements the human security approach and takes into consideration the localized and priority needs of the participating communities.
