The constitution states that no person shall be hindered in the enjoyment of his freedom of conscience, including
freedom of thought and religion, freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community
with others, and both in public and in private, to manifest and propagate his religion or belief in worship, teaching,
practice and observance. No religious community or denomination shall be prevented from providing religious instruction
for persons of that community or denomination in the course of any education provided by the community or denomination
or from establishing and maintaining institutions to provide social services for such persons.
A 1996 amendment to the constitution declares Zambia a Christian nation while providing for freedom of religion.
Christian religious education is provided in many government schools. Those who
wish to may opt out. Private schools may provide instruction in their own faith.
