The project will be implemented in 10 districts in Malawi directly targeting approximately 10,000 children with disabilities over a four-year period (from 2023 to 2027). During the first phase, the project will target five districts: Mziba, Kasungu, Ntchisi, Dowa, and Dedza. The project will be implemented in two phases, each with a two-year duration. A total of 4,300 children will be targeted in the first two years and approximately 5,700 children in years three and four. Building on the successes from Able to Thrive, World Vision will also leverage and track support from the government and NGOs in Malawi to advocate for case management approaches that address the burden of disabilities amongst children in Malawi; with an aim of reaching an additional 25,000 children. Lessons learned from Malawi will be shared across more than 60 World Vision offices to ensure we meet a commitment from the 2022 Global Disability Summit to serve more than five times as many children with disabilities by the end of 2026 (over 60,000 more children)
We are proud to be reviewed and held accountable by these independent third-party organizations:
