Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (Malawi)

GIZ has been working in Malawi on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) for more than 30 years. Malawi is a priority partner country for German international development cooperation.

The present Government is working to reduce poverty and pursuing broad-based economic development policies. All its development measures are based on the Malawi Growth and Development Strategy. GIZ is working with local and international partners to reduce poverty, achieve long-term improvements in basis education and health care, and promote the private sector.

Malawian-German cooperation currently focuses on three priority areas: education, health and development of the private sector in rural areas. GIZ is also working on behalf of BMZ in the areas of public finance administration and social security.
