Michigan State University (MSU) has a long history of research and engagement in Malawi to improve the country’s agricultural and public health outcomes. Recently MSU reinforced this legacy of collaboration by supporting the establishment of the MwAPATA Institute. The MwAPATA Institute is a Malawian-led agricultural policy research institute that engages the government of Malawi, the private sector, and civil society in applied research, policy outreach, capacity building, and policy coordination.
