Activity under preparation Technical Assistance to PSD support agencies - Tikuze Malawi Contract related to: Technical Assistance to PSD support agencies - Tikuze Malawi - Malawi is a landlocked, low-income country, highly vulnerable to external shocks, with an economy primarily based on rain-fed farming and primary transformation activities.
