| dcterms.description | There has been an explosive growth in organisations registering as Societies since the creation of the Third Republic in 1991. Many of these are formed by ex-civil servants whose positions have been eliminated in the scaling down of state responsibilities. There is considerable anxiety among long-established CSOs that these new organisations are not value-driven-a fundamental characteristic of civil society organisations - but are merely opportunist attempts to access whatever funding is available in a time of hardship and scarce resources. Many civil practitioners in Zambia worry that the opportunists may be setting the tone for the whole sector -possibly prejudicing the work and the reputation of other CSOs, and limiting their ability to engage in collaborative activities with the government and the business sector.'
