Crucial areas such as health, education and agriculture must be accorded priority.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince 2013, donors are channeling support to Malawi mostly through NGOs. It is, therefore, important that their interventions must have impact as they are doing the work on behalf of the government,\u201d Kaliati said.<\/p>\n<p>Every year, since 2019, NGORA\u2014a state-owned registrar and regulator of all NGOs and civil society organizations in Malawi\u2014issues an NGO sector report outlining the developments and achievements in the sector.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the report, NGORA Vice Chairperson, Nina Ghambi, expressed her happiness over the 43 percent compliance to reporting requirements, saying, as a regulator, they have worked hard to achieve that through awareness of the NGO Law and other innovations.<\/p>\n<p>She, however, acknowledged that a lot still needs to be done in order to achieve the compliance threshold of 65 percent. \u201cWe are writing and telling NGOs about compliance. The NGO Law is very clear. Everyone is supposed to be regulated,\u201d Ghambi said.<\/p>\n<p>There are reportedly 880 NGOs in NGORA\u2019s database and 715 are supposed to be submitting annual reports, including audited financial statements. NGORA seeks to ensure that more than half of the 715 NGOs are compliant to reporting requirements so that the resources in the NGO sector, now estimated at MK1 trillion annually, are well accounted for.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
