DARA’s consultants undertook a market situation analysis focused on inclusive red meat value chains for women and youth in Malawi as part of a wider East and Southern Africa initiative.
The study examined market conditions, participation opportunities and constraints affecting women and young people in the livestock sector, with fieldwork in Balaka and Chikwawa districts. It also identified youth groups and other actors relevant to future value-chain support.
The findings were intended to inform interventions that strengthen inclusive livestock-sector participation while contributing to livelihoods, food security and nutrition.
