About

Safe Chain is a civic-tech platform for SRHR in Zambia.

We connect young people — especially in rural and underserved communities — with trusted information, confidential reporting, and youth-friendly services.

Young people walking together in their community

Why we built this

Across rural Zambia, young people face real barriers to SRHR — distance, stigma, and a lack of trustworthy information. Safe Chain is built with youth advocates, health workers, and disability-led organisations to bridge that gap.

Every line of code, every flow, and every illustration is shaped by what users tell us they need. We test in low-bandwidth conditions, on entry-level phones, and with assistive technology.

Our principles

Privacy first

Anonymous by default. No tracking, no profiling.

Inclusive

Designed with girls and youth with disabilities, from day one.

Local languages

English, Bemba, Tonga, Nyanja and Lozi at launch.

Trauma-informed

Calm flows, clear language, no judgement.

Community-led

Scorecards turn lived experience into accountability.

Low-bandwidth ready

Lightweight pages and SMS fallback for every feature.
