TEAM Girl Malawi (Transformational Empowerment of Adolescent Marginalised Girls in Malawi) will reach some of the most marginalised adolescent girls in Malawi by creating community learning centres, building sexual and reproductive health knowledge, strengthening family and community support, improving child protection and education systems, and giving girls and their families skills to earn.
Key facts
How we are making a difference
This project will balance meeting the urgent needs of girls with addressing the systemic barriers preventing their access to education, particularly those created by gender, disability and power inequalities.
In community-based classes these out-of-school girls and their male peers will learn basic literacy, numeracy and life skills. Youth Clubs will impart sexual and reproductive health knowledge, and develop resilience and self-esteem.
Improved school leadership will make schools safer, more inclusive spaces, and community engagement will raise aspirations for marginalised young people while protecting them from abuse and child marriage.
Our holistic support will empower girls to choose their own pathway into mainstream education, vocational training or employment. By working through local government and in partnership with communities, these changes will be sustained in the long term.
