A unified voice of women from women-led civil society organisations and other organisations championing the rights of women, young women and women with disabilities yesterday convened at UNDP offices in Lilongwe to advocate for the meaningful inclusion and participation of women in key decision-making positions across society.

According to Deputy UN Women Country Representative to Malawi, Fatima Mohammed, the engagement meeting was critical in advancing the promotion and realisation of women’s rights, including the right to political participation, particularly in light of the decline in women’s representation in Parliament and at the local government level following the September 2025 elections.

β€œThis meeting was crucial to reaffirm and confirm that the representation and effective participation of women is very critical and important for the democracy of Malawi. Democracy can only be a full democracy if it includes different voices of citizens; women and men, and women in their different intersectionality,” explained Mohammed.

Sharing similar sentiments, NGO Gender Coordination Network Board Chairperson Maggie Kathewera Banda strongly proposed that Malawi adopt quotas for women in political positions at both parliamentary and local government levels.

β€œFor us, our main suggestion is that we want more women in Parliament and local government. What is the route? The route that we see will make the maximum impact is to have quotas in place, as other African countries are making progress with the same system,” said Banda.

The meeting was convened by NGO Gender Coordination Network with financial support from UN Women.

NGO Gender Coordination Network yesterday bade farewell to one of its Board Members and Chairperson of Agriculture and Economic Empowerment of Women Permanent Committee, the late Madam Ellen Nakanga Mulamba.

In her tribute during the funeral service, NGO GCN Board Chairperson Maggie Kathewera Banda described the late Madam Nakanga Mulamba as a humble, hardworking, and optimistic leader whose constant encouragement inspired those around her.

"Whenever I faced challenges, she would always reassure me by saying, 'It is well, Madam Chair. It is in order. Do not worry,'" recalled Madam Kathewera Banda with deep emotion.

She added that Madam Nakanga Mulamba's dedication, wisdom, and positive spirit would be greatly missed by the Network and all who had the privilege of working with her.

Speaking on behalf of the family, her children described their mother as a woman of deep faith, compassion, and generosity, who was always ready to support anyone in need. They said her love, kindness, and selfless service will remain a lasting legacy.

May the beautiful soul of Madam Ellen Nakanga Mulamba rest in eternal peace.
