" "So I went to school in Zambia and did all my college and university education here in America. And I went back to Zambia and taught at Evelyn Hone College of Further Education. And I did a lot of community work as an NGO[sic]: YWCA, Red Cross, and the Zambia Preschool Association. And then I came back later for my Ph.D. at New York University, where I studied early childhood education and teacher education. And then I went back to Zambia, taught at the university, continued to do a lot of work with children and young people and women, and then UNICEF [United Nations Children's Fund] invited me to work for them in Nairobi.

Additional quotes by Inonge Mbikusita-Lewanika
My father was the first president of the African National Congress of Zambia. And my grandfather, you may be interested to know, was the patron of actually the South African African National Congress in 1912. So I come from a political family. And my father was a member of Parliament. Our parents brought us up to listen to news, so we did have an idea when we were growing up of what was happening out in the world, which I found interesting. But at an early age--I was 13, 14--after watching my father being in politics, I decided that I didn't want to be a politician.
