We had a great conversation with Pam Haigh, who is the UK General Manager at Ripple Africa.
Ripple Africa is a UK registered charity working to improve local environment, education and healthcare in Malawi, Africa. Operating at the grassroots level, involving the community in all aspects of its activity, Ripple Africa has over 690 staff and 12,000 people in Malawi working on projects on a part time, or voluntary basis.
These projects include fish conservation, fuel-efficient cookstoves, tree-planting and forest conservation, running and assisting eight pre-schools, supporting a community library, a disabilities and rehabilitation project and sexual health project, and more.
With over ten years of experience working at Ripple Africa, Pam shares her experience on what it takes to successfully manage a charity in Malawi.

The key themes we explore on this episode include:

The environmental challenges facing rural communities in Malawi.
How to roll out solutions and gain the buy-in from local communities and organisations.
Are charities a sustainable form of assistance to local communities?
How is Ripple Africa improving the lives of Malawians?

Have a listen!
