Democracy and Governance

USAID/Malawi’s Democracy and Governance strategy and work has, for the past five years, focused heavily on the role of civil society in assuring that citizens have access to justice. USAID has been a leader in the training and deployment of paralegals, who fill an important need for legal professionals to help with common problems and disputes, such as custody, inheritance, and labor disputes. USAID has also been a front-runner in civic education, focusing largely on legal/civil rights and access to justice issues. Networks of community based educators and popular radio programs have been effective tools in delivering civic education to very remote areas and populations that are disenfranchised.  Girl learning to vote at Children in the Wilderness Camp (Photo by: Amanda Joynt, Children in the Wilderness)
