Malawi Against Physical Disabilities (MAP)

Malawi Against Physical Disabilities (MAP) is a charitable organization sub-vented by the Government of Malawi to finance its operations. The organization hosts a number of donor funded projects that contribute or are in line with its mandate, which provides free medical rehabilitation services to persons with disabilities in Malawi through physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, nursing, provision of assistive devices and many more. We run outreach programs through regional offices in Blantyre, Zomba, Lilongwe and Rumphi.
We also run the Kachere Rehabilitation Centre Situated in Blantyre, which is the only referral facility for persons with disabilities in the country. We also produce assistive devices in workshops placed in the regional offices.
MAP has also a Medical Rehabilitation College (MRC) which provide diploma in medical rehabilitation (Rehabilitation Technicians) and diploma in occupational therapy (Occupational Therapy Technicians) to students who will be able to provide medical rehabilitation services and occupational therapy to persons with disabilities after graduation.
