Abstract
This Chapter discussed the concept of Zambian culture and how it is related to Education. The chapter showed that Zambian culture is diverse and that some of it is included in the Zambian curriculum across disciplines. It has been argued that more needs to be done in order to include more cultural aspects in the Zambian curriculum so that the children can appreciate the value of their own culture.
