UNIP's Foreign Policy (1964 – 1991)

This topic analyses the foreign policy of the UNIP government, with a focus on Non-Alignment, Pan-Africanism, and support for liberation movements. Learners evaluate the effects of this policy on Zambia's international standing and domestic situation. Understanding this aspect is crucial for seeing how Zambia navigated the Cold War era and established its identity on the global stage. This knowledge is directly applicable to ECZ exam questions on Zambia's international relations and its role in African affairs, a core component of the Form 3 and 4 History syllabus under the Competence-Based Curriculum.
