Book Non governmental Organizations in Malawi

Download or read book Non governmental Organizations in Malawi written by M. Glagow and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of Non-Governmental Organizations in Africa has been widely discussed. Malawi like other African countries underwent a transition towards pluralism and democratization. The NGOs play a vital part in this process, especially since state bureaucracies and market mechanisms do not provide the expected development. But are NGOs really able to make up for the shortcomings of official institutions, considering the problems that still lie ahead? Taking their historical, political, economic and social environment into consideration, the study draws a picture of NGOs in Africa with all their possibilities and limitations.

Book The Educational Role of Non Governmental Organisations

Download or read book The Educational Role of Non Governmental Organisations written by Alex A Inglis and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-08 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the Cold War has witnessed the rise of a new humanitarianism. The increase in human rights abuses and atrocities, such as those that took place in Rwanda, East Timor, Sierra Leone, and Kosovo have shifted the focus from a state-centred approach to international security to one of individual and community security and protection. Within this shift there has been a noticeable increase in the engagement of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to alleviate the suffering of the most vulnerable and to hold governments accountable for their actions. It is within this context that the author has proceeded to examine the educational role of NGOs in post-conflict reconstruction.It is currently estimated that 77 million of the world s children remain out-of-school, with 43 million of these children living in conflict-affected fragile states. Education is considered a key component in a country s economic and social development, yet conflict has at best a major destabilizing affect on a society, and at worst a devastating one, especially upon its educational infrastructure.

Book Reforming the Malawian Public Sector

Download or read book Reforming the Malawian Public Sector written by Richard I. C. Tambulasi and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2010 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reforming the Malawian Public Sector argues that the new public management model that Malawi, like most African countries, adopted under the influence of donor organisations has not led to the intended development. The book examines decentralisation, performance contracting, and public-private partnerships as key aspects of the reforms and comes to the conclusion that at best, it can be argued that the failures have been due to poor implementation and this could be attributed to the fact that the process was led by donors who lacked the necessary institutional infrastructure. The book uses the 2005/6 fertiliser subsidy programme, which the government embarked on despite donor resistance that it went against market models, but which turned out to be overwhelmingly successful to demonstrate the stateís developmental ability and potential. This volume is essential reading for academics, students, and practitioners seeking a deeper understanding of public administration, management, policy, development and governance in Africa and the rest of the developing world. The book is dedicated to the memory Guy Mhone, a Malawian, who was among Africaís leading scholars in public administration and governance. His works focused mainly on public sector reforms and development.

Book Non governmental Organisations Participation and Partnership Building in Basic Eduation in Malawi

Download or read book Non governmental Organisations Participation and Partnership Building in Basic Eduation in Malawi written by Jonathan Joxxie Makuwira and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major purpose of the study was to critically examine the extent to which three Malawian NGOs facilitate the participation of their beneficiaries and their current partnerships with other stakeholders in the provision of basic education programmes in local communities in Malawi. The ascendancy of these NGOs in education and development has been attributed to their perceived comparative advantage over the state, including facilitating participation and partnership building among beneficiaries, reaching the poor, and cost-effectiveness in the delivery of development programmes.

Book Promises Power Politics and Poverty

Download or read book Promises Power Politics and Poverty written by and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2024-05-03 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Banda's thirty-year rule was the subject of Lwanda's earlier book Kamuzu Banda of Malawi: a Study in Promise, Power and Paralysis, the first edition of which was in 1993. Now the small Southern African nation of Malawi has been a multiparty democracy since the first multiparty elections on 17 May 1994. The first multiparty dispensation, under the United Democratic Front's President Bakili Muluzi, experienced both startling successes and fantastic failures. Since then, the paralysing poverty has persisted, yet the once silent land is resonating with freedom of speech, free universal primary school education, an independent judiciary... The first incarnation of this book was written in 1996, three years before the elections of 1999. At the time, some of the critical political questions then were: Could the UDF begin delivering on their pledges on poverty alleviation and development? Was the MCP capable of genuinely reforming itself? Could AFORD survive? Could democracy itself survive in Malawi? Could a new cadre of leadership emerge; one that was both unencumbered by the Banda legacy and which spoke for both rich and poor, rural and urban? These are some of the issues discussed in Promises, Power, Politics and Poverty the Democratic Transition in Malawi. This book is still, by far, the most detailed account of the political transition of 1991 to 1994, containing details of the origins of the UDF and AFORD, and charting the rise and fall of the Diaspora-based political parties. It also critically examined the performance of the new government up to 1996. It is an essential comprehensive reading for all those interested in the turbulent politics of Malawi, from 1961 to the present. It has dozens of illuminative pictures and anecdotes. "Lwanda is the kind of writer who wants to put everything in..." Landeg White, (Emeritus Director, Centre for Southern African Studies, York University). "He writes with deep knowledge, commendable compassion, and often remarkable analytical insight. This analysis of a complex political situation in Malawi since the defeat of Dr. Banda deserves to be considered very carefully by anyone who has the future of Africa, especially central Africa, at questions at heart" (Professor George Shepperson).

Book Girls Primary and Secondary Education in Malawi

Download or read book Girls Primary and Secondary Education in Malawi written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enhancing girlsâ access to high-quality education is a global priority that is articulated in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is also a national priority in Malawi. The Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) was contracted by UNICEF, to conduct an education sector review of girlsâ primary and secondary education in Malawi. The review aimed to: outline the current context and challenges relating to girlsâ education in Malawi; identify the key factors contributing to gender inequalities in educational access and outcomes; provide an overview of the policies and strategies currently in place to enhance girlsâ education; provide recommendations to help feed into future policy and program decisions. A wide range of factors contribute to issues of access, quality and equity in girlsâ education in Malawi. Addressing the sociocultural factors, school infrastructure and facility factors, and economic factors that impact on girlsâ education has been a priority of the Malawi Government, along with many donors and non-governmental organisations (NGOs). Stakeholders from government, donor organisations, NGOs, United Nations (UN) organisations and community members were consulted as part of this research and were asked for their perspectives on the successes, challenges and future priorities for girlsâ education. Four overarching themes were identified from these consultations. The first theme was the need for a holistic approach to girlsâ education. The second theme was the need for processes and structures to facilitate a coordinated and collaborative approach to girlsâ education in Malawi. The third theme was funding. The fourth theme was evidence-based decision making. Seven priorities to further enhance girlsâ education in Malawi were identified as part of this research. [Abstract].

Book Non Governmental Development Organizations and the Poverty Reduction Agenda

Download or read book Non Governmental Development Organizations and the Poverty Reduction Agenda written by Jonathan J. Makuwira and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Non-Governmental Development Organisations (NGDOs) have, over the past two decades, entered centre stage in their active participation in the social, political and economic issues affecting both the developing and developed world. This book offers a highly stimulating and concise summary of the NGDO sector by examining their history and metamorphosis; their influence on the social, political and economic landscapes of the ‘Northern’ and ‘Southern’ governments and societies. The author analyses competing theoretical and conceptual debates not only regarding their contribution to the global social political dynamism but also on the sector’s changing external influence as they try and mitigate poverty in marginalized communities. This book presents NGDOs as multidimensional actors propelled by the desire to make a lasting change but constrained by market-oriented approaches to development and other factors both internal and external to their environment. While a lot of attention has been given to understanding international NGDOs like World Vision International, Oxfam, Care International and Plan International, this book offers a critical analysis of grassroots organizations – those NGDOs founded and established by locals and operate at the deepest end of the development contexts. This work will be of interest to students and scholars in a range of areas including Development Studies, International Organizations and Globalization.
