Strengthening Institutional Capacities for the Implementation of the Malawi National Cultural Policy (2021 -24)

The SICIPS Project was implemented in collaboration with the Malawi National Commission for UNESCO, with support from the Royal Norwegian Embassy. The project  aimed at supporting implementation of the Malawi Cultural Policy in line with the 2005 Convention for the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions. Among other things, the project culminated into the development of strategies for implementing the Malawi Cultural Policy; supported processes for the enactment of the National Heritage Act (2024); strengthened capacities of creators and practitioners on artistic freedom, and supported platforms that promote the marketing of cultural and creative goods.
