Kamala Harris Honors Family Legacy and Women's Leadership in Africa

Vice President Kamala Harris visited the site of her grandfather's home in Zambia, where he lived and worked in the 1960s. The structure is no longer there, but the location was identified by the US Embassy and the Zambian Ministry of Lands. Harris also announced over $7 billion in private sector investments and US government funding for Zambia, aimed at increasing climate resilience and addressing food insecurity. The funds will aid millions of farmers on the continent and include commitments from solar irrigation company SunCulture and the building and maintenance of weather stations in Africa.
