STAKEHOLDERS PLEASED WITH THE INDEPENDENT REPORT

Early this week, we had meetings with stakeholders where we shared our first report from the Independent monitor in relation to the Operational Level Grievance Mechanism at EPM.

 From the government bench, the stakeholders included Ministries of Labour, Gender, Agriculture and Trade & Industry.

 Oxfam, United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Malawi Human Rights Commission (MHRC) were among flagship institutions that also received copies of the report.

 "It is pleasing to note that EPM continues to address issues relating to gender equality even after the phasing out of the Malawi Tea 2020 program in which gender was one of the pillars the program was focusing on," said Oxfam Business Development Manager Elias Khozombwe during one of the engagement meetings.
