UNICEF Malawi
The series of emergencies faced by Malawi from 2015 until 2017 overwhelmed the capacity of the country to respond adequately to protect lives, recover and sustain livelihoods as vulnerable children and women were displaced by the floods and required food and nutrition assistance for most parts of the year. This situation warranted a well-coordinated emergency response that involved many players including the government of Malawi, Donors, United Nations agencies, national and international humanitarian organisations and the community who needed to be assisted.
Guided by the Global framework of cooperation, UNICEF and WFP fostered sound cooperation at the ground, in conjunction with some of the major UN agencies involved in humanitarian work across various spheres to collaborate in responding to the emergencies according to their mandates. The global memoranda of understanding and the policies and technical guidelines is fully endorsed by the Malawi government.
