  • Religion Networks and Hiv/Aids in Rural Malawi
    RELIGION NETWORKS AND HIV/AIDS IN RURAL MALAWI DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Ohio State University By jimi adams * * * * * Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Kazimierz M. Slomczynski, Advisor Professor James W. Moody, Outside Member _______________________ Professor Korie Edwards Advisor Sociology Graduate Program Professor Steven H. Lopez Copyright by jimi adams 2007 ABSTRACT Sub-Saharan Africa’s residents represent approximately two-thirds of the nearly 40 million global HIV/AIDS cases, while comprising only about one-tenth of the world’s population. In the rural settings where most inhabitants of SSA live, religious organizations are the only formal organizations present, and virtually all residents of SSA participate in a religious organization. Many have theorized a relationship between religion and HIV/AIDS, suggesting alternately its helpful and harmful potential in this crisis. The existing research conceptualizes religion, HIV risk and the connection between them by studying individuals, organizations, or aggregations of individuals and organizations. In this dissertation, I demonstrate the adjustments a network perspective contributes to researchers’ ability to understand religious organizational responses to this epidemic, the nature of HIV-risk and, perhaps most importantly, how these are linked. The resulting conceptualization suggests some of the first mechanisms that demonstrate how

  • 1. Introduction 1. Malawi: a Multi-Ethnic Nation
    From: Dr. Willie Zeze RE: Abstract Submission – 2015 Religious Freedom and Religious Pluralism in Africa: Prospects and Limitations Conference DEMOCRATIC CONSTITUTION AND ETHNIC ORGANIZATIONS IN MALAWI - PRESERVING GOOD TRADITIONAL PRACTICES OR PROMOTING NEPOTISM AND TRIBALISM? Abstract Due to the advent of the 1994 democratic constitution particularly its enactment on Protection of human rights and freedoms: Culture and language, Freedom of association, Religion and beliefs, Freedom of assembly and Political rights, Malawi has witnessed mushrooming of tribal organizations, aiming at preserving the traditional African religious beliefs and African cultural traditions. The Chewa Heritage Foundation (Chefo) and the Muhlakho wa Alhomwe (MWA) among the Chewa and Lhomwe tribes respectively are among well-known ethnic organizations through which the traditional beliefs, cultural traditions and religions are enjoying a significant respect from members of mentioned-tribes. The democratic constitution has cleared a road for the establishment of these ethnic organizations. However, it seems activities of Chefo and MWA are inter alia promoting tribalism and nepotism, in addition to being used as campaign tools for some political parties. This article intends to assess and evaluate the role and the impact of the Chefo and MWA on preservation of good cultural practices and constitutional democracy in Malawi. The hypothesis is, in spite of preserving cultural practices as guaranteed in constitution, the tribal organizations need to be watchful so that they should not promote tribalism, nepotism and being used as campaign tools by Malawian politicians. 1. Introduction In order to appreciate how in their understanding the Democratic Constitution the Chewa Heritage Foundation and Mulhako wa Alhomwe in Malawi, revitalize, preserved and protect customs, values, beliefs and traditional practices it is necessary to understand a social- political history of Malawi.

  • INTERDENOMINATIONAL AITH Kampala, Uganda, and He Received Doctor's Degrees from Dar-Es-Salaam and Heidelberg Universities
    Klaus Fiedler, born 1942 in Germany, is a missiologist and mission historian connecting the conntinents of Europe and Africa. He studied initially at the Baptist Seminary in Hamburg, but received his most formative F education at Makerere University in INTERDENOMINATIONAL AITH Kampala, Uganda, and he received Doctor's degrees from Dar-es-Salaam and Heidelberg Universities. He served for seven years as a missionary with the Kanisa la Biblia in South Tanzania, then 16 years in AITH ISSIONS M F M Germany as pastor, teacher and editor. In 1992 he started teaching at the University of Malawi in Zomba, since 2008 he is Professor of Theology and Religious Studies at Mzuzu ISSIONS IN FRICA University and Postgraduate Coordinator. A It is not the European and American churches that evangelized Africa, but the mission societies. The missions from the Great Awakening like London Missionary Society and Church Missionary Society, or the Holy Ghost Fathers and the White Fathers, which started the process of Sub-Saharan Africa becoming a Christian continent, are well known and their work is better documented. Less known and less documented are the interdenominational faith missions, beginning in 1873, aiming to reach the still unreached areas of Africa: North K Africa, the Sudan Belt and the Congo Basin. So there were LAUS missions like Africa Inland Mission or Sudan Interior Mission, which gave birth to some of the big churches like ECWA in F Nigeria and Africa Inland Church in Kenya.

  • The Dynamics of Deprivation in Malawi
    The Dynamics of Deprivation in Malawi: The multi-dimensional effects of the lean season on children By Robert Hopper A study commissioned by UNICEF Malawi, Social Policy Section in collaboration with Child Protection, Education, Health, Nutrition, and WASH sections. October 2020 1 Acknowledgments I would like to thank a number of people for their support and assistance throughout this study. Within UNICEF Malawi, essential contributions to study design and feedback on findings were provided by Mesfin Senbete, Patrick Okuni, Wilfred Bengnwi, Benson Kazembe, Xinxin Yu, Mutsinzi Heinrich Rukundo and Nami Nakatani, whose wealth of knowledge on the specific deprivations relative to their sections was extremely beneficial. Furthermore, a very special thanks needs to go to Maren Platzmann for her patience, guidance, and input into all facets of the study. I am also grateful to a number of persons external to UNICEF Malawi for their invaluable contributions. These include, but are not limited to, Frank Otchere and Kaku Attah Damoah at UNICEF Innocenti, Chris Burningham and Karishma da Silva at World Bank Malawi, and Simon Haenni and Mirela Sabotic at the Department of Economics, University of Zurich. Their contributions and advice advanced this paper significantly. Preface The idea of assessing the dynamics of deprivation in a more structured, holistic way was developed by the UNICEF Malawi team working on shock-sensitive social protection, supported by Maxi Ussar. The intention was to look beyond seasonal food insecurity, to better understand and in consequence address the multiple and nuanced ways children are affected every year by immense risks that can have lasting consequences on child wellbeing, development and Malawi’s human capital.
