A study by the Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace (CCJP) has cited inadequacy of instructors as one of the challenges suffocating efforts to promote adult literacy programmes in the country.
CCJP is conducting a study on local government and local council compliance with national, regional and international human rights instruments in protecting and promoting the rights of elderly persons in Malawi.
Among others, the study is auditing elderly programmes and interventions at the local council and community level in order to analyze the inclusion of the elderly in local development processes in the country.
