About Temwa
Temwa (www.temwa.org) works to reduce poverty in remote communities in Malawi.
The area Temwa work in is particularly remote and extremely poor – so poor that families often cannot feed themselves all year round – a situation made worse in recent years by flooding and droughts. Adding to the challenges are low levels of education, high rates of HIV and water-borne diseases.
Since 2003, Temwa have been working with the community through an experienced local team. Temwa partner with the community to tackle the root causes of rural poverty simultaneously.
- To build resilient livelihoods Temwa have planted over 1 million trees and trained 5,000 farmers to help them feed their families all year round.
- To control the spread of HIV, 30,000 people have been tested through mobile clinics and those living with HIV provided with medical and social support.
- Over 2,000 people now have access to safe drinking water preventing unnecessary deaths from cholera, bilharzia and diarrhoea .
- Hundreds of children have completed secondary school through Temwa’s school bursary scheme and thousands more have benefitted from a community library and after school literacy clubs.
- More than 2,000 entrepreneurs and small businesses have been supported through training, microloans and start-up support.
