Wandikweza We believe everyone in Malawi should have access to high-quality health care when they need it

Wandikweza is a locally-led organization determined to improve access to healthcare in remote communities. We train and empower local community health workers to be on the ground and available to improve the health and
wellbeing of vulnerable communities.

In rural communities we serve, too many families face impossible barriers to care. Health facilities are often hours away on foot, transport is costly and health awareness is limited. These barriers mean that women in labor, newborns in distress, or children with treatable illnesses are often left without timely help. The result is tragic, preventable maternal and child deaths that devastate families and communities.

We bring services directly to people’s doorsteps through Nurses on Bikes to restore hope, save lives and ensure that families are never forgotten.

Community health workers (CHWs) bring primary health services directly to their neighbors' doorsteps, improving health outcomes even at the last mile. But evidence on their costs and cost-effectiveness is fragmented. As a Coalition, we set out to change this and get the facts on horizontal CHW programs. We found that horizontal programs show promise for cost-effectiveness, especially compared to alternatives. Learn the details: https://gh.bmj.com/content/10/7/e017852

When men stand with their wives and children in healthcare, from antenatal visits to child immunizations, they save lives and strengthen communities.

To every man who carries his child to the clinic, who reminds his wife of her check-up, who listens, cares and acts, you are making a difference.

Behind every strong community there is a healthy mother. Through antenatal care, health education and a safe delivery support, we ensure mothers and babies thrive from the very beginning.

When mothers are cared for, families flourish and communities grow stronger!
