The Mlambe Project

muh-lam-bei

Malawi is one of the poorest countries in the world. We at The Mlambe Project believe that the best means of aiding the Malawian people in their struggle against poverty is through the provision of sustainable livelihoods and a high quality education. We aim to achieve this through the use of low cost and high impact methods.

We make a difference

Our Strategies in Detail

We’ve worked hard to transparently define our strategies on everything from operational practices to how we work with other NGOs.

Each of these outlines has a goal, key considerations, catalysts, deliverables, and future considerations. In this way, we clarify what we need to do to turn our vision into reality.

Stephen Kambalame

Building Projects Manager and TMP Malawi Chair

Steven’s tough childhood, which included running 40 kilometres every day to school, is one of the main reasons that he has put his heart and soul into The Mlambe Project so far. He believes that children should have easy access to education without travelling considerable distances to school. Previously a conventional builder, Steven was keen to learn about earthbag building and teach others. He has thoroughly enjoyed working with the TMP volunteers from the UK and believes that the project has a lot of potential to change Malawi’s educational infrastructure.

Marissa Newlove

Volunteer Brand and Layout Designer

Marissa started mid-2020 to help work remotely on launching the new website with other volunteers. She also worked on the 2021-2025 strategy document layout, which you are reading right now. Marissa is originally from the United States, and she currently lives in Taiwan. Marissa is now in school to learn Mandarin full-time after teaching English for over 3 years. In her spare time, she is learning new graphic design techniques in the hopes of making it a full-time career and goes to pottery classes on the weekends. She hopes to visit Malawi as soon as the opportunity arises.
