The event was hosted by Graeme Dey MSP, Species Champion for Alpine-blue sow thistle and Woolly willow, who outlined his own experiences as Species Champion and commended the efforts of fellow MSPs for getting behind the initiative.

    SCOTLAND’S CIVIC LINKS WITH MALAWI CONSTITUENCY MAPPING: HOLYROOD UPDATED APRIL 2021 A briefing by the Scotland Malawi Partnership on the distribution of the 1,225 Scotland-Malawi links it represents, across Holyrood regions and constituencies 0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Each year more than 109,000 Scots are involved in a civic link with Malawi. The Scotland Malawi Partnership exists as a politically neutral and non-governmental membership networking helping to coordinate, represent and support the work of 1,225 organisations and key individuals linked with Malawi across Scotland. To do this, and to maintain all-party support for its members’ work with Malawi, the Scotland Malawi Partnership helps its members connect with their local MSP and MP, and to brief MSPs and Scottish MPs on Malawi links in their constituency. Every single constituency of Scotland has a number of civic Malawi partnerships and SMP members. This latest report, updated in April 2021, gives a handful of examples of Malawi links in each of Scotland’s 73 Holyrood constituencies and 8 regions. The partnerships contained in this report are just a fraction of all the Malawi links across Scotland. Full details can be found at www.scotland-malawipartnership.org.
