Organisation for Bio Initiatives (OBI), Zambia
The Organisation for Bio Initiatives (OBI) evolved out of the
observation that there is a lot of potential for renewable energy
in rural areas that can contribute to the general wealth of the
people and a shortage of institutions that can assist in the
realisation of this potential. OBI is a non-governmental and
non-profit making organisation, preparing its operations since
January 2007. In October 2007 the organisation has been registered
under the Registrar of Companies as a Company Limited by Guarantee
(registration number: 69031).
OBI consists of four board-members and two executive members. The
board has an advisory task. The executive team leads the logistics
and operations of OBI. The executive team is divided in a Programme
Manager and a Field Coordinator. Programme Manager and Field
Coordinator work in close cooperation and they are accountable to
each other and to the board.
The vision of OBI is: Rural communities in Zambia can satisfy in
their basic needs and more through the rural production of
renewable energy
OBI's mission is: Wealth creation, women empowerment and energy
independence in rural areas of Zambia in an environmentally
sustainable manner
