The Economic Impact of Christian Missionaries in Zambia

---

This open-access study explores how Christian missionaries shaped Zambian and broader sub-Saharan African development across nearly a century. It traces missionary interventions in Western-style education and healthcare, highlighting how these services were delivered unevenly across gender and regions. By examining missionary legacies, the book reveals how inequities in educational access and regional health infrastructures have hindered economic development in Zambia. Situated within debates on colonialism, human capital, and essential public services, the work offers an innovative lens on the long-term economic effects of missionary activity. It provides valuable insights for students and researchers in economic history and development economics
