About Us

Mission and Vision

The Ethical Society of Zambia is a humanist community that celebrates the inherent worth and dignity of every person. We are inspired by the ethical culture movement founded by Felix Adler in 1876. We believe that ethics is central to human life, and that we can live meaningful and fulfilling lives without supernatural beliefs or dogmas. We value reason, compassion, democracy, justice, and sustainability, and we seek to promote these values in our personal and social lives. We welcome people of all backgrounds, identities, and perspectives to join us in exploring ethical issues and ideals, and in building ethical relationships with each other and the earth.

We offer a variety of programs and activities for our members and the public, such as Sunday platforms, ethical education for children and adults, social justice campaigns, community service projects, cultural events, and social gatherings. We also provide ethical ceremonies for weddings, funerals, baby namings, and other life transitions. We are a non-profit organization that relies on the generosity of our members and supporters to sustain our work.

We invite you to learn more about us by visiting our website, following us on social media, or attending one of our events. We hope you will find a home in our ethical society, where you can grow as a person, connect with others who share your values, and contribute to a better world for all who share it.

AND SO IT BEGINS, A Directors story.

A WORD FROM THE DIRECTORS AND SO IT BEGINS.. The most difficult task during the start of any project is laying down the first stone. One of the most popular quotes today that is a typical example of this is "Rome wasn't built in a day", and true to the saying, the city of Rome is a magnificent and beautiful city that has been a symbol of greatness across thousands of years and it took thousands of years to be built too. The fact is, all good things take time. Excellence can not be achieved overnight, and only real hard work produces the best of results. The Ethical Society of Zambia is an organization that has extremely clear goals, and we hope to make significant strides in the development of a community that has a passion to set the world alight with not just the promise of a better tomorrow but the commitment to being a direct influence of bringing to life a better world for generations to come. We would lik

Happy Holidays To Everyone!

Happy Holidays! As this year comes to end, we should reflect on many things that have happened in our African secular community and what we can do to make things better next year. Even though we are very new on the scene, we already know about the continued abuse of human rights in many countries. The right to the freedom from and of religion is a fundamental human right that should be respected throughout this continent and we can fairly say that Africa has a lot of work to do with regards to allowing people the freedom of thought that they inherently deserve. The situation in Zambia and Southern Africa is far different than the Northern and Eastern regions of Africa. A lot of secular individuals face religious prejudice at work and at home. The severity of these cases however, far surpasses what is seen in Non-African or Non-Middle Eastern countries. The socio-economic status of many countries is marred by the theocratic forms of leadership that render anyo
