TEMWA

Temwa was founded in 2003 by our Managing Director, Jo Hook, and Sophie Guise. The friends were running a backpackers' lodge in Usisya, a remote town on the lakeshore from 1999 to 2000... Temwa is supporting a 3 year project which works with the disadvantaged farming communities in Nkhata Bay North to build sustainable livelihoods that give families income and food while protecting the local environment... Temwa's Community Literacy project, which ran from 2020-2023, improved reading and writing skills of primary-aged children through weekly after-school Reading Camps. Temwa also continues to support the running of the Usisya Community Library so that the wider community has access to books, educational materials and a quiet place to learn.
