Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of archival education and training opportunities in Malawi. In the chapter, the author also presents a historical background to the development of archival education and training in the ESARBICA region, and how training opportunities for archivists and records managers evolved with support from ICA and UNESCO. It is also indicated in this chapter that when funding from ICA and UNESCO severed, individual countries established their own training institutions, but not all ESARBICA member states have done well. In view of the foregoing, the researcher conducted a study to establish why Malawi had not done well as compared to other member states in the region. The findings of the study revealed a number of challenges as highlighted in this chapter. The author also provides some propositions on how the situation could be addressed in Malawi and other ESARBICA member states.
