The Chikwa Ecovillage is our answer to Malawi’s pressing ecological and economic challenges.

Our goal is to create a beacon of hope that empowers disadvantaged individuals and provides a blueprint for a better future.
To design, build, and operationalize the 10-hectare Chikwa Ecovillage within a 5-year timeframe. This pilot project will function as a holistic proof-of-concept, developing sustainable housing, food, water, and energy systems. Critically, it will serve as the primary training and innovation hub to catalyze the development of a federated network of ecovillages, providing the scalable blueprint and operational nerve center for the long-term North Chikwawa Eco-District vision.
