THE United Nations Children's Education Fund (UNICEF) has pledged over US$1 million in supplies that include tents, school supplies, and basic household items for families whose houses have been washed away by floods in various parts of Zambia.

UNICEF is further working to provide emergency assistance to 70,000 Zambians, many of whom have lost their houses and either have no or limited access to schools and health care.
