About our Malawi news

Latest news on Malawi, covering politics, economy, President Chakwera's government, aid programmes, agriculture, Lake Malawi, and developments in this Southeast African nation.

Malawi, a landlocked country in southeastern Africa with a population of approximately 20 million, faces significant challenges as one of the world's poorest nations. Under President Lazarus Chakwera's leadership since 2020, the country continues to work towards economic development and social progress whilst managing recurring challenges including food security and foreign aid dependency.

Recent developments include the nation's ongoing efforts to recover from a devastating cholera outbreak and severe flooding, which have strained healthcare resources and agricultural production. The government has implemented economic reforms aimed at stabilising the kwacha and reducing inflation, while working with international partners to strengthen infrastructure and improve public services.

Known as the "Warm Heart of Africa," Malawi's cultural landscape is rich with traditions, including the vibrant Lake of Stars Festival that celebrates music and arts along Lake Malawi's shores. Local communities continue to preserve their heritage through traditional dances, crafts, and customs, while adapting to modern challenges and opportunities.

Since gaining independence from British rule in 1964, Malawi has transformed from an authoritarian one-party state under Hastings Banda to a multi-party democracy. The country's journey has been marked by significant milestones, including the historic 2020 election rerun that saw the peaceful transfer of power to the current administration.

Our NewsNow feed provides comprehensive coverage of Malawi's evolving story, from political developments and economic initiatives to cultural celebrations and environmental conservation efforts around Lake Malawi. Stay informed about this dynamic nation through our carefully curated selection of news from trusted local and international sources.
