Our Mission
Safeguarding Heritage. Empowering Learning. Strengthening Identity.
At ILamba Lyesu, our mission is to be a cultural and knowledge hub that ensures the resurgence and thriving of the Lamba people. We are dedicated to creating spaces — digital and intergenerational — where heritage is preserved, knowledge is shared, and identity is celebrated.
What We Strive to Achieve
Safeguard Indigenous Knowledge
Archive oral traditions, clan histories, proverbs, songs, and rituals.
Provide ebooks, audiobooks, and multimedia resources to keep knowledge alive.
Empower Community Learning
Develop tools for Lamba language learning (quizzes, glossaries, audio clips).
Offer storytelling platforms for both elders and youth.
Host cultural workshops on music, herbal medicine, dances, and governance.
Strengthen Lamba Identity
Promote cultural pride locally and globally.
Advocate for indigenous rights and recognition.
Connect Lamba communities across Zambia, Katanga (DRC), and the diaspora.
Our Mission in Action
We are not only a platform for remembering the past — we are a living movement for today and tomorrow.
For elders, ILamba Lyesu is a place to keep their wisdom alive.
For youth, it is a space to learn, create, and innovate with their heritage.
For the diaspora, it is a bridge back to home, identity, and belonging.
Together, these groups ensure that the Lamba voice does not fade, but grows louder across borders and generations.
How We Fulfill Our Mission
By connecting generations: elders, youth, and families worldwide.
By bridging borders: uniting communities in Zambia, Katanga, and beyond.
By embracing modern tools: turning tradition into digital formats that inspire learning, pride, and engagement.
A Living Mission
Our mission is not static — it is alive, evolving, and inclusive. As the Lamba community grows and adapts, so will ILamba Lyesu. We exist to serve, preserve, and inspire, ensuring that Lamba heritage thrives in the modern world.
“Our mission is to safeguard the wisdom of the past, empower the voices of today, and strengthen the identity of tomorrow.”
