About Temwa
Temwa is a Bristol-based charity committed to empowering remote African communities. Our goal is to harness the power of bringing communities together. We partner with hard-to-reach communities in Malawi, empowering local people to end poverty and transform their own futures. At the same time, we inspire local communities in the UK to come together to help bring about this change. We have been working in Northern Malawi for over 20 years, and our work currently includes sustainable agriculture, forestry, health and education programmes.
Principles of Temwa:
- Community-driven – Temwa’s decisions are made by the community
- Working towards long-term self-reliance
- Commitment to sustainable development
- Belief in inclusive communities
