Hivos commissioned a study which sought to conduct an in-depth analysis of Covid-19 data in Malawi.
The study aimed to disaggregate Covid-19 data according to gender, age, and various vulnerable groups – including disability and elderly – in order to establish an evidence base for response planning to policy makers and other development partners. This in-depth analysis report provides the first detailed description of the Malawi epidemic and response in a language easily understood by a wide section of the general public and further presents recommendations to be considered in order to improve the data compilation, presentation and use.
