Malawi is a state party to a number of international human rights instruments that guarantee the rights of children with disabilities (CWDs), which include the United Nations (UN) Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD); the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC); and the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child (ACRWC). The instruments guarantee the right to education, among other rights.

Corporate Governance Country Assessment : MalawiWorld Bank (Washington, DC, 2014-10-16)This ROSC assessment of corporate
 governance in Malawi benchmarks law and practice against the
 Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)
 Principles of Corporate Governance and covers public
 interest entities (including public limited companies,
 financial institutions, and parastatal companies) with
 special focus on the companies listed on the MSE. This
 report should be read in conjunction with the Accounting and
 Auditing ROSC Malawi, which reviews issues related to
 accounting, auditing, and financial reporting in more
 detail. Growth in 2006 has been estimated at 6.5 percent.
 Inflation and bank lending rates have declined significantly
 over the past few years. Malawi qualified for debt relief
 under the World Bank s Heavily Indebted Poor Countries
 (HIPC) initiative in 2006. The business environment has
 improved, and the private sector is optimistic about the
 future; the Malawi Business Survey 2006 conducted by the
 Malawi Confederation of the Chambers of Commerce and
 Industry (MCCI) rated the business environment good to very
 good with better expectations in the next 12 months. The
 Malawi Growth and Development Strategy (MGDS) 2006-2011 sets
 a future growth target of more than 6 percent annually for
 the five-year period, which will increase per capita income
 to US$450 by the end of 2011. For this purpose, Malawi is
 seeking to increase domestic and foreign investment.
