MRDRMP
Malawi is vulnerable to a variety of natural hazards, notably floods, droughts, strong winds, earthquakes, and landslides, which are known to cause both rapid and slow onset disasters. Among weather-related shocks, strong winds, droughts and floods have had the greatest impact on the country’s economy, livelihoods, and infrastructure.
The Malawi Resilience and Disaster Risk Management Project (MRDRMP) is a three Year- Project (from 1stJanuary 2021 and 31st January 2024) and multi-sectoral. It is being implemented by government ministries, departments and agencies including the Ministry of Water and Sanitation sources (MWS), Department of Disaster Management (DODMA), various departments in the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA), district councils, PMU and all potential beneficiaries. It also involves the participation of other service providers on the ground involved in flood risk management under the Shire River Basin Project.
