Apatseni Mwayi Atsikana Aphunzire (Give Girls a Chance to Learn)
This activity in Malawi seeks to deliver a range of district-specific activities to mitigate the barriers to girls’ enrollment and retention in school. The activity covers five priority districts including Balaka, Machinga, Phalombe, Mzimba and Chikwawa, targeting girls aged 10–19 in both upper primary and secondary schools. The activity has developed a package that includes targeted, yet competitive bursaries, construction of secondary schools, extracurricular and in-school activities to empower girls and strategies to transform gender norms and reduce school-related gender-based violence.
