  • Malawi Sustainable Energy Investment Study September 2019 DRAFT for VALIDATION WORKSHOP
    Malawi Sustainable Energy Investment Study September 2019 DRAFT FOR VALIDATION WORKSHOP GOVERNMENT OF MALAWI Ministry of Natural Resources, Energy and Mining 1 Foreword Malawi has committed to achieving “Sustainable Energy for All”, as enshrined in Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) number 7. Energy is a means to an end; it provides a platform for social and economic development, and a pathway for achieving many of the other SDGs. The third Malawian Growth and Development Strategy (MGDS III) recognises this central role of energy, citing it as “the lifeblood of the economy”, and laying out a goal to “provide sufficient sustainable energy for industrial and socio-economic development”. Improved access to reliable [Photo to be added, and sustainable energy supply is one of the core outcomes the MGDS III seeks to achieve. pending validation] In response to these commitments, the Ministry of Natural Resources, Energy and Mining (MoNREM), acting through the Department of Energy Affairs (DoEA) and Malawi Energy Regulatory Authority (MERA), has worked to put in place policies, regulations and a framework that will allow increased investment and rapid growth in the power sector. The National Energy Policy (2018) and the Malawi Renewable Energy Strategy (2017) build on the targets laid out in the Sustainable Energy for All Action Agenda (2017) and provide high-level policy direction, complemented by detailed technical analysis made available in the most recent Integrated Resource Plan (2017). To translate these goals into reality, the Ministry will rely on clear plans to move key investments forward, based on transparent funding arrangements that aim to provide reliable and sustainable energy for Malawians at the lowest possible cost.

  • Gender and Ethnicity in Banda's Malawi Abstract
    Gender and Ethnicity in Banda’s Malawi Edwin S. Segal Professor Emeritus Department of Anthropology University of Louisville Abstract During his thirty year reign in Malawi Kamuzu Banda built a state mythology and ideology of development based on constructions of gender and ethnicity that promised no future and little economic change for the majority of the population. The social structures that were established created patterns and processes that continue, a decade after Banda's death, to organize social and cultural life. Page 1 of 29 malawi paper final.doc Gender and Ethnicity in Banda Malawi1 Malawi’s first republic came to an end in 1992-94 with the peaceful, electorally based deposition of Kamuzu Banda as president. Banda lived long enough to see his title, “President for Life,” fade into irrelevancy. My contention here is that the sociocultural structures established in Banda’s 30 year reign brought patterns and processes into being that continue, at least in part, to organize social and cultural life a decade after his death. I also contend, though I do not explore it in this paper, that understanding a relatively non-urban, non- industrialized state such as Malawi leads inevitably to an insight into the more generalized post colonial situation of many Africa nations. In order to be able to grasp the realities of contemporary Malawi it is necessary to subject Banda’s Malawi to some scrutiny. Two major foci of Banda’s regime and its policies were gender and ethnicity, seen as crucial elements to control in order to create and accelerate economic development.

Evidence from Smallholder Farmers in Nkhotakota in Malawi By 1Wanangwa Nyambose & Charles B.L. Jumbe12 1University of Malawi, Bunda College of Agriculture, Box 219, Lilongwe, Malawi Tel: +265 884364699; Email: [email protected] 2Corresponding author Tel: +265 999646387 & +265 1 277508; Email: [email protected] Abstract The study identified factors that influence the adoption and contribution of conservation agriculture (CA) on household food security among smallholder farmers. To determine factors that affect the adoption of CA among smallholder farmers, a probit regression model was used. Then, the study compared estimated production function between adopters and non- adopters of CA. From the descriptive statistics, there are significant difference in the number of years of schooling, household land size, income levels and potential labour availability. From the probit regression results, age, education level of the household head, increase in the number of extension visits and land holding size are important in influencing the adoption of CA in the study area. Further results indicate that adoption of CA technology increases household maize production. Cobb-Douglas production estimates showed that CA adopters had more than 50% higher maize production than that of non-adopters.
