CARE International established operations in Malawi in 1998, and today has a wide range of programs related to strengthening Livelihoods and Climate Justice, Humanitarian Assistance, Gender Justice, Health, and Education. CARE prioritizes working with women and girls, including supporting girls’ education, increasing access to sexual and reproductive health services, and working with women smallholder farmers on sustainable agriculture practices. As an organization putting women and girls at the center of everything we do is important because when they realize their rights and have access to productive resources, they are able to lift their families and communities out of poverty.
CARE is making an investment in scaling sustainable gender transformative programming, engaging in advocacy, and strengthening community-based and civil society organizations at district and national levels.
