The African report on child wellbeing: How child-friendly are African governments? - Malawi

The African Report on Child Wellbeing provides an insight into the wellbeing of children in Africa and assesses the extent to which governments meet their obligations, through a ground-breaking Childfriendliness Index – developed by The African Child Policy Forum (ACPF).

The Government of Malawi emerged in the top ten most child-friendly governments of Africa. This was mainly for two reasons: first, as a result of the Government of Malawi’s high commitment in allocating a relatively higher share of the national budget to provide for the basic needs of children; and secondly, as a result of the effort and success in achieving relatively favourable wellbeing outcomes as reflected on children themselves.
