# TRENDING FASHION IN MALAWI

Malawi officially the Republic of Malawi, is a [landlocked country](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landlocked_country) in Southeastern [Africa](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa) that was formerly known as [Nyasaland](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyasaland). It is bordered by [Zambia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zambia) to the west, [Tanzania](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanzania) to the north and northeast, and [Mozambique](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozambique) to the east, south and southwest. Malawi spans over 118,484 km2 (45,747 sq mi) and has an estimated population of 19,431,566. Malawi's capital and largest city is [Lilongwe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lilongwe). Its second-largest is [Blantyre](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blantyre), its third-largest is [Mzuzu](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mzuzu) and its fourth-largest is its former capital, [Zomba](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zomba,_Malawi). The name Malawi comes from the [Maravi](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maravi), an old name for the [Chewa people](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chewa_people) who inhabit the area. The country is nicknamed "The Warm Heart of Africa" because of the friendliness of its people. The [economy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Malawi) is heavily based on agriculture, and it has a largely rural and rapidly growing population. 

The part of Africa now known as Malawi was settled around the 10th century by [migrating Bantu](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bantu_expansion) groups. Centuries later, in 1891, the area was colonized by the British and became a [protectorate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protectorate) of the [United Kingdom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom) known as Nyasaland. In 1953, it became a protectorate within the semi-independent [Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federation_of_Rhodesia_and_Nyasaland). The Federation was dissolved in 1963. In 1964, the protectorate was ended: Nyasaland became [an independent country](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malawi_(1964%E2%80%931966)) under Queen [Elizabeth II](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_II), and was renamed Malawi. Two years later it became a republic. It gained full independence from the United Kingdom, and by 1970 had become a [totalitarian](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totalitarianism) [one-party state](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-party_state) under the [presidency](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_of_Malawi) of [Hastings Banda](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hastings_Banda), who remained in this role until 1994. Today, Malawi has a [democratic](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy), [multi-party](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-party_system) [republic](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_Malawi) headed by an elected president.

#### TRIBES IN MALAWI AND THEIR FASHION
**The Chewa people**

The Chewa (or AChewa) are a Bantu ethnic group from central and southern Africa who make up the majority of Malawi's population. The Chewa are closely related to the Tumbuka and Nsenga peoples that live in the neighboring areas. The Phiri and the Banda are two significant Chewa clans, each with a population of 1.5 million people.

**The Lowme people**

The Lomwe are one of Malawi's four main ethnic groups, with a long history of crossing the Mozambique–Malawi border. Due to tribal warfare in Mozambique, many Lomwe moved to Malawi towards the end of the 19th century and mixed with the Chewa in the 1930s. The Elhomwe language spoken in Malawi is largely a Mihavane dialect, with remnants of Kokholha dialect in select places such as Thyolo.

#### MUSIC IN MALAWI
The country is a rich soundscape of traditional beats, Pan-African rhythms, and global genres that have been given a very Malawian makeover. Malawi’s music scene today is a mishmash of the traditional and modern, the indigenous and foreign.

Over time, the wide range of traditional music in Malawi was appropriated and modernized by new musical influences, styles, and instruments. If you wander round the streets of Lilongwe on a Friday night, or stroll through downtown Blantyre, you can find locals jamming to a mix of the old and new. Similar to any town or city across the world, the old classics are beloved and continue to play on, but there is a new wave of artists putting their own stamp on Malawian music.

Jazz, Hip-Hop, Gospel, Reggae and Afrobeats feature as prominent genres of music you will hear when out and about in Malawi, with songs normally being sung in Chichewa, the national language.

#### ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION AND HABITAT PROTECTION IN MALAWI
According to the U.N. FAO, 34.4% or about 3,237,000 ha of Malawi is forested according to FAO. Of this 28.9% (934,000) is classified as primary forest, the most biodiverse and carbon-dense form of forest. Malawi had 365,000 ha of planted forest and with a change in Forest Cover: Between 1990 and 2010, Malawi lost an average of 32,950 ha or 0.85% per year. In total, between 1990 and 2010, Malawi lost 16.9% of its forest cover, or around 659,000 ha.

Malawi has a system of forest reserves, the first of which were established over a century ago. Grazing and cultivation have encroached on many forest reserves, and many reserve forests have been replaced with exotic plantation trees including pine and eucalyptus.
Malawi's forests contain 144 million metric tons of carbon in living forest biomass. Biodiversity and Protected Areas: Malawi has some 1029 known species of amphibians, birds, mammals and reptiles according to figures from the World Conservation Monitoring Centre. Of these, 1.7% are endemic, meaning they exist in no other country, and 2.4% are threatened. Malawi is home to at least 3765 species of vascular plants, of which 1.3% are endemic. 8.9% of Malawi is protected.

Malawi is home to ten national parks and wilderness parks. Most species of big game are now restricted to these areas due to an increase in poaching over the last decade.

#### EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE IN MALAWI
Malawi is vulnerable to climate change and extreme weather events (EAD, 1998, 2002a, 2004). The Vulnerability and Adaptation Assessment Report of 2001 (EAD, 2002b) has clearly indicated that Malawi is experiencing a variety of climatic hazards, which include intense rainfall, floods, seasonal droughts, multi-year droughts, dry spells, cold spells, strong winds, thunderstorms, landslides, hailstorms, mudslides and heat waves, among many others.

Currently, the majority of rural communities are experiencing chronic food deficits in many parts of the country on a year-round-basis owing to the effects of floods and droughts. This situation has been compounded by the high prevalence of HIV/AIDS that has created a large number of dependent orphans, and has also adversely impacted on rural household food production systems, as well as the quality of life and sustainable livelihoods.

The increasing prevalence of the recurrent floods and droughts is of major concern to the Government of Malawi because of their far-reaching consequences on food, water, health and energy. Erratic rains have resulted in acute crop failure, despite concerted efforts to improve seasonal weather forecasting at the beginning of the rainy season. Crop failure has resulted in food insecurity and malnutrition, especially among vulnerable rural communities. On the other hand, floods have resulted in the disruption of hydroelectric power generation, water pollution, and increased incidences of diseases, such as malaria, cholera and diarrhea.
