The Government of Malawi’s Wildlife Policy (Malawi Ministry of Tourism, Parks and Wildlife 2000, pp2, 4) stresses the “development of partnerships with all interested parties to effectively manage wildlife both inside and outside protected areas and the encouragement of the participation of local communities, entrepreneurs, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and any other party with an interest in wildlife conservation”.

  • Lake Malawi Destination Guide
    Lake Malawi Destination Guide Overview of Lake Malawi Occupying a fifth of the country, Lake Malawi is the third largest lake in Africa and home to more fish species than any other lake in the world. Also known as Lake Nyasa, it is often referred to as 'the calendar lake' because it is 365 miles (590km) long and 52 miles (85km) wide. Situated between Malawi, Mozambique and Tanzania, this African Great Lake is about 40,000 years old, a product of the Great Rift Valley fault line. There are fishing villages to be found along the lakeshore where residents catch a range of local fish including chambo, kampango (catfish), lake salmon and tiger fish. The export of fish from the lake contributes significantly to the country's economy, and the delicious chambo, similar to bream, is served in most Malawian eateries. Visitors to Lake Malawi can see colourful mbuna fish in the water, while there are also occasional sightings of crocodiles, hippos, monkeys and African fish eagles along the shore. The nearby Eastern Miombo woodlands are home to African wild dogs. Swimming, snorkelling and diving are popular activities in the tropical waters of the lake, and many visitors also enjoy waterskiing, sailing and fishing. There are many options available for holiday accommodation at the lake, including resorts, guesthouses and caravan or camping parks. All budgets are catered for, with luxury lodges attracting the glamorous and humble campsites hosting families and backpackers. Cape Maclear is a well-developed lakeside town, and nearby Monkey Bay is a great holiday resort area. Club Makokola, near Mangochi, is also a popular resort.

    Supplement to Koedoe. 1977: 106-115. PRESENT DAY STATUS AND FUTURE OF NATURE CONSERVATION IN THE REPUBLIC OF MALAWI o G ANSTEY and A J HALL-MARTIN Department of National Parks and Wildlife Ulongwe and Wildlife Research Unit Kasungu Malawi Introduction When Malawi (formerly Nyasaland) became independent in 1964 the status and future of its game reserves were in jeopardy. The former administration had adopted a policy of benign neglect towards the country's wildlife areas (Anon 1963), and the remnants of the Depart­ ment of Game, Fish and Tsetse Control had been absorbed by the Forestry Department in 1963. Fortunately the Life President of Malawi, Dr H Kamuzu Banda, took a strong interest in wildlife conservation and it was only his personal intervention, and the advent of independence, that saved the former Lengwe Game Reserve from deproclamation (Hayes 1967) as planned by the colonial administration. With the Life President's encouragement and the dedicated efforts of the staff respon­ sible for wildlife, the tide which had been running strongly against nature conservation wa.s turned, culminating in the establishment of a separate Department of National Parks and Wildlife only a decade after independence. Physiography and climate The Republic of Malawi (RM) lies in south-east central Africa between 9°25' and 17°08' Sand 33° and 36°E. Its total area is 121 600 km2 which includes 28 416 km2 of surface water (Lakes Malawi, Chilwa and Malombe). The country has borders with Mocambique, Tanzania and Zambia (Fig. 1) and is totally landlocked. The Great Rift Valley in which Lakes Malawi and Malombe lie traverses the country from north, to south.

As part of SAIHC’s Capacity Building programme a SAIHC team headed by the SAIHC Chairman, Captain Abri Kampfer SAN, supported by a Norwegian Hydrographic Service representative, Mr Herman Iversen visited Malawi during the period 20 to 24 June 2011. The report arising from this visit is forwarded for your consideration and comment. 2. The main report at Annex A is based on the previous report dated 04 February 2008. For ease of reference the previous report has been used as the basis for this report with the visit team’s comments added to each section in italics and underlined. Sections where no comments are made indicate that previous ones remain extant. 3. May I on behalf of the team thank the Department of Surveys and in particular Mr Michael Mzunzu for the unstinting support and assistance given to the team before and during the visit. In summary the team considers that good progress has been made in number of areas since the previous visit and that there is a greatly willingness and enthusiasm to promote national hydrography in Malawi which SAIHC will do all that it can to support.
