UN Malawi

A vibrant, responsible press is central to democracy. The UNRC @beckyadda engaged with @Times360Malawi MD Leonard Chikadya to explore the role of media in fostering peaceful, inclusive & informed participation in democratic processes. #UNMalawi #SDG16

🤝 In an inspiring exchange with Malawi Law Society President Davis Njobvu, the UN Resident Coordinator explored ways to advance access to justice, promote legal inclusion, and strengthen civic trust—critical pillars for a fairer, more resilient Malawi. #SDG16 #JusticeForAll

@UNMalawi Resident Coordinator @beckyadda met with the Malawi Council for Disability Affairs (#MACODA) to strengthen collaboration on advancing disability rights. The UN reaffirmed its support for inclusive policies, data & services — ensuring no one is left behind.

Today, on #NelsonMandelaDay, we honour Madiba’s enduring legacy of peace, justice & human dignity. Let us be reminded that “It is in our hands to make a better world for all.” @UNMalawi, we recommit to service, inclusion & leaving no one behind #MandelaDay2025 #LeaveNoOneBehind

Today, @UNMalawi joined partners in the After-Action Review of Malawi’s response to El Niño and Tropical Cyclones Chido & Jude. Strengthening coordination, preparedness, and resilience is key to protecting vulnerable communities from future climate shocks. #Resilience #UNinMalawi

"This is not a policy paper, it is a call to action. Persons with disabilities are not asking for charity or favour. They are asserting their rights, to be heard, to lead & to shape the future of their country” said UNRC @beckyadda at the launch of the Malawi Disability Manifesto

📢 The Malawi Disability Manifesto has been officially launched — a powerful call to action ahead of the September Elections. The UN urges all political parties to prioritise disability inclusion in their manifestos and ensure no one is left behind in Malawi’s democratic process

Our Rep, @LettyChiwara - "We are not here to simply increase numbers- we are here to transform systems, challenge stereotypes, and build power collectively" #CrossPartyWomensForum

"Today’s forum is an opportunity to craft concrete, cross-party strategies to move from commitment to action—to reimagine, and indeed realize, a Malawi where women lead equally, visibly, and powerfully" - @beckyadda , UN Resident Coordinator, at the #CrossParty Women's Forum

Cross-Party Women’s Forum: “The strength of our democracy depends on the diversity of voices in our leadership. Today, we begin the work of ensuring that women's voices are not just heard, but amplified and empowered to lead.” Halima Daud, Deputy Minister @MoGCDSW_Malawi
