Anti-Corruption Symposium Malawi-ACSym-MW2023

President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera joined the plenary of the symposium earlier today at BICC. Such participation by the head of state not only underscores the significance of the symposium but also shows government’s commitment to combating corruption.

EU Ambassador to Malawi, Rune Skinnebach, said the symposium has provided a platform for participants to delve into strategies to empower the public, fostering a culture where citizens actively engage in holding their leaders accountable. He said as we redirect public attention to the current state of play in the fight against corruption in Malawi, it is important to acknowledge the progress made so far. “As the EU, we hope that the symposium will provide an impetus to strengthen the collaboration between the various oversight institutions. Let us build on the momentum generated, forging stronger partnerships and working together to overcome the challenges that lie ahead.” He said
