Behind every lesson learned, every question answered and every dream nurtured is a teacher who chooses to make a difference.

On 2026, the United Nations in Malawi celebrates the teachers who show up every day to inspire, guide and equip children and young people to reach their full potential.

This yearโ€™s theme, "๐’๐ญ๐š๐ง๐๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐ญ๐ž๐š๐œ๐ก๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ: ๐Ÿ”๐ŸŽ ๐ฒ๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ฌ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ญ๐ž๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐Ÿ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง, ๐š๐๐ฏ๐š๐ง๐œ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ข๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ฌ๐ญ๐š๐ญ๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ฌ๐ก๐š๐ฉ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐Ÿ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ", is a reminder that investing in teachers is investing in the future of our societies.

In Malawi, this commitment is reflected in efforts such as UNESCO โ€˜Our Rights, Our Lives, Our Futureโ€™, which is supporting the strengthening of teacher development and continuous professional development, while working with the Ministry of Education - Malawi to advance curriculum development for Life Skills Education.

By equipping teachers with the knowledge, skills, and tools they need, we help learners gain the values, competencies, and confidence to lead healthy, productive, and resilient lives.

Today, we celebrate the teachers who are shaping Malawiโ€™s future, one learner, one classroom, and one lesson at a time.

๐ŸŒŸ Celebrating the people and organisations driving change across Malawi! ๐ŸŒŸ

We recognize the incredible contribution of NGOs, community-based organizations, faith groups, youth networks, women's organizations, human rights defenders, and volunteers working every day to improve lives across our country.

From strengthening health and education systems to advancing human rights, climate action, accountability, and citizen participation, their impact is helping shape a more inclusive, resilient, and sustainable Malawi.

As development challenges evolve, strong partnerships, local leadership, accountability, and civic space are more important than ever. Together, Government, civil society, development partners, communities, and the private sector can achieve even greater results.

๐Ÿ‘ Congratulations to all organizations and individuals recognized through the NGO Awards, and thank you to every NGO making a difference, often far from the spotlight.

Working together for Malawi. Building stronger communities. Leaving no one behind.
