| Summary: | This paper examines the Annual Progress Report on Malawi's Poverty Reduction Strategy. Malawi could not reach its macroeconomic targets owing mainly to expansionary fiscal policies, which resulted in higher-than-envisaged domestic debt, interest rates, and inflation.

The University of Malawi undertook several activities meant to increase access and equity and to reduce reliance on government subventions. |
