The Malawi 2063 (MW2063) is a product of self-less contributions, dedication and commitment of patriotic Malawians across the country, in rural and urban areas, as well as the diaspora, on the Malawi we want to see by the year 2063. The National Planning Commission (NPC) applauds these Malawians whose ideas have culminated into this Vision.

One of the biggest challenges facing African health systems is the shortage of human resources for health (HRH). This shortage has been exacerbated by the AIDS pandemic, which has not only increased attrition of health workers, but has also increased work loads as a result of increased morbidity in the general population. In addition, morbidity among health workers themselves leads to absenteeism, resulting in work overload for the remaining health professionals (Paradath et al, 2003).

In this first decade of the 21st century, immense advances in human well-being coexist with extreme deprivation.  In global health we are witnessing the benefits of new medicines and technologies. But there are unprecedented  reversals.

This Annual Report comes in the final year of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the Health Sector Strategic Plan (2011 – 2016). It is, therefore, a good time to start reflecting on the overall achievements made under the ending HSSP in order to inform the next Health Sector Strategic Plan for the Country. Consequently, the presentations in this report are a mixture of the 2014/2015 Fiscal Year performance and the trend in health outcomes over the last five years.

This field guide has been prepared with the aim of creating a better understanding of the problems facing Malawi’s forestry sector and the role that communities may be able to play in solving them. It is intended as a handbook for those involved in promoting or practising forest management at village level – frontline extension staff of central and local government, traditional leaders, non-governmental organisations and the wider public.
