Chilubi District
District in Northern Province, Zambia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chilubi District with headquarters at Chilubi is located in Northern Province, Zambia. It covers the north-east Lake Bangweulu and Bangweulu Wetlands containing several islands including Chilubi Island, and some of the mainland northeast of the lake. As of the 2022 Zambian Census, the district had a population of 114,011 people.[1]
Other islands in Chilubi District include Chichile, Kasansa, Panyo Island and Luangwa, all at the edges of the swamps where they dry out sufficiently in the dry season to form a connection to the mainland.[2]
Isangano National Park lies in the east of the district but it has no management and most of the wildlife has been poached out.[3]
