The MwAPATA Institute, in collaboration with UNDP Malawi and the National Planning Commission of Malawi (NPC), has organised the Ulimi Ndi Chilengedwe M’Malawi (UCHI) Roundtable Event scheduled for Thursday, 16th April 2026, at the Sunbird Capital Hotel in Lilongwe.
The objective of the roundtable event is to disseminate key findings and recommendations from the MwAPATA Institute’s deep-dive analyses of the three value chains: banana, soybean, and rice. The theme for the event is “Turning Potential into Commercial Outcomes: Strengthening Implementation for Inclusive Agricultural Commercialisation”.
The event is organised under the UCHI Strengthening Agricultural Commercialisation Project, which is a five-year initiative funded by the European Union (EU) and implemented by UNDP in close collaboration with the Government of Malawi. The event will include presentations on the three-value chain deep-dive results, a moderated panel discussion, and the development of an implementation mechanism, supported by a clear roadmap and a technical support team to oversee the process.
