Conceptual Framework for the Design of the National Agriculture Management Information System (NAMIS) in Malawi

Since 2017, DG has collaborated with the Malawi Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation, and Water Development (MoAIWD) on country level data use support, as part of the Results Data Initiative. Our aim was to support framework design for the National Agriculture Management Information System (NAMIS).

This Conceptual Framework and its Executive Summary inform NAMIS design, and provide actionable recommendations for MoAIWD during implementation. DG and MoAIWD completed a detailed landscape analysis – of priority decisions, data and tools, and data use barriers in the agriculture sector. These reports analyze and synthesize findings to inform NAMIS design around potential users.
