Emergency aid in Malawi will provide: 

• Food Packs: £25. To feed a family for a month.
• Cataract Eye Surgery: £40. A simple and effective surgery to allow people with cloudy eyesight or loss of sight to be able to see again.
• Farmers Pack: £30. Providing families, the tools to enable them to stand on their own two feet. 
• Water Borehole: £4,650 (with personalised feedback). In Malawi up to 5.6 million people do not have access to clean water causing water borne diseases. According to UNICEF water borne diseases are amongst the major causes of death. 
• Bicycles: £140. Sustainable bikes which will come with its very own pannier racks and baskets to carry essential items. Allows families to buy and sell produce and goods, giving them a sustanence 
  
• COVID-19 emergency response.

Following a recent deployment to Malawi, One Nation are providing food packs, cataract operations and farmers packs in Malawi. Something as simple as a cataract operation can help a person who hasn’t been able to see for more than 20 years regain their vision. We are targeting £20,000 to help One Nation implement these projects in places like Makhlani Village. We are also aiming to provide bicycles in Malawi, not only for recreation, but for impoverished people to use in order to gain employment, travel to and from work or to sell items from. This will hopefully help them to be able to support themselves and their families without relying on aid in the future.  

Malawi is one of the poorest countries in the world with 50.7 percent of the population living below the poverty line and 25 percent living in extreme poverty. Efforts to reduce poverty have failed to yield the desired results due in part to a rapid population growth that erodes the marginal gains from economic growth. (Malawi Economic Development Document).
