The Copenhagen Consensus Center, in partnership with the National Planning Commission of Malawi and AFI-DEP (a think tank based in Malawi), is conducting the Malawi Priorities Project. The project aims to identify and promote effective interventions to address Malawi’s development challenges, informed by cost-benefit analysis. The aim is to inform both short and long-term development priorities for the country, acknowledging that there are insufficient resources to address all of Malawi’s challenges and that maximizing outcomes requires careful, evidence-based consideration of the costs and benefits of all policies. Limestone Analytics was hired to conduct the research and associated CBAs for nine research questions under the Malawi Priorities project. The nine research questions include the following sectors; education, agriculture, utilities, governance, industrialization, natural resource management, and COVID-19 economic recovery.
