The Caregiver Homeschooling Instruction Program: Mitigating the effects of COVID-19 on literacy in Malawi

Mitigating the effects of COVID-19 on literacy in Malawi

World Vision implements education activities in over 300 primary schools and 950 early childhood development centres across Malawi’s north, central and southern regions; supporting more than 306,000 girls and boys between the ages of three and nine. To address the additional challenges of COVID-19, we adapted our traditional literacy programming, developing interventions to strengthen the capacity of caregivers to lead their children’s education.

Young Malawians adopt clean energy to save the planet

Armed with waste paper and sawdust, members of Nkhusu Youth Club in Mchinji are seeking gains in clean energy while at the same protecting the environment.

With limited economic opportunities and rising poverty emerging as a persistent challenge in the area, the youth members feel that more can be done to reap from using clean energy sources such as paper briquettes.

World Vision Malawi

 

Children in Malawi face several obstacles including poverty, high levels of people living with HIV and AIDS and frequent exposure to Malaria. Additionally, with climate change, worsened by deforestation, Malawi has become prone to disasters, leaving an already poor population much poorer.

This landlocked country is bordered by Zambia, Mozambique and Tanzania. Since 1994, Malawi has been a democracy and held elections. However, the economy has not grown fast enough to lift people out of poverty.

Our teams have been working in Malawi since 1982. We partner with local actors and the Government to improve the well-being of children, especially the children and the most vulnerable.
