The aim of this paper is to explore ways in which communities can assist in the redevelopment of formerly mine-owned recreational facilities in the Copperbelt Province. Since the privatization of mining conglomerate Zambia Consolidated Copper Mines (ZCCM) in the early 1990s, this recreational infrastructure has remained in a management quandary resulting in disuse, neglect, disrepair and decay, and contributing to blighted neighborhoods. The study concluded that communities can lead the process of regeneration, as evidenced by the fact that most of the current activities in these facilities are being run by them, however this first requires a clear institutional and policy framework from government (local or central).
