This report describes the outcomes of a two-day interactive workshop in Lusaka (Zambia), in September 2017. The British Geological Survey (BGS) gathered 26 delegates from 14 organisations based in Zambia, Malawi and Zimbabwe to explore sustainable development priorities in eastern Africa and consider the role of Earth and environmental science. This workshop was an activity of the BGS Eastern Africa Official Development Assistance (ODA) Research Platform. We used a collaborative approach to foster dialogue and gather information to inform future planning of BGS ODA activities.
