Anchor Megafarm Program
Malawi launched its new development vision, Malawi 2063, in January 2021. This is the nation’s blueprint for achieving the goal of becoming an inclusively wealthy and self-reliant nation by 2063. Malawi 2063 is anchored on three pillars: Agriculture Productivity and Commercialization, Industrialization and Urbanization. This vision is operationalized in ten-year phases, the first of which is currently being implemented as the Malawi Implementation Plan (MIP 1: 2021- 2030).
