About Restless Development

Restless Development is a global non profit agency. We support the collective power of young leaders to create a better world. We are independently registered and governed in nine countries (India, Nepal, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Uganda, UK, USA, Zambia and Zimbabwe) bound together by our vision for youth power. We run youth-led programmes to tackle the issues that young people care about the most as well as running a growing global Youth Collective.

We know young people have the power to solve the challenges we face in our world, but they are  being ignored and overlooked. We are the agency that works with young people so they can lead in  solving those challenges. Whether that means supporting communities to end child marriage or  prevent HIV, we work with young people to change their lives and the lives of people in their  communities. Our programmes are genuinely life-changing, but can’t do any of this without talented, creative individuals at every level of our organisation.

Our approach to Safeguarding

Restless Development Zambia considers the welfare and protection of children, young people and vulnerable adults to be an  organisational imperative with primacy over the success of programmes or strategic objectives. We recognise that  safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility and we expect all of our staff, volunteers and partners to ensure we protect  the communities in which we operate from harm and abide by our Safeguarding policy.
