ABOUT THE TRAINER
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Viwemi Louis Chavula, NDI’s deputy country director in Malawi, has over 13 years of experience across democratic governance spectrum: from promoting conflict resolution, women’s empowerment and participation in national, local and private sector processes to building responsiveness and accountability between elected officials, civil society organizations and constituents through Local Development Initiatives.
Viwemi has made a number of important contributions to NDI’s social accountability, political parties and local governance approaches. He has always challenged the team to consider new ideas and the CSO/Ministry of health Audit unit work to identify local needs and advocate to leaders to be more responsive to citizens’ service delivery concerns.
His current and former roles, at UN Women, Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), the Carter Center, the International Republican Institute (IRI), and Catholic Relief Services (CRS), have highlighted his ability to successfully re-engineer program delivery functions with a focus on efficiency, while implementing state of the art democratic governance best practices.
An ardent fun of decentralization, Mr. Chavula has been pivotal in strengthening relationships between ministries of gender, local government and NDI. Additionally, Viwemi has been instrumental in developing and delivering mentorship sessions with councilors, secretariat staff and CSOs in 13 councils.
Prior to joining NDI, Mr. Chavula’s work primarily focused on the development and management of multidimensional Malawi government ministries through building departments’ capacities to promote gender equality and women’s empowerment. Mr. Chavula provided technical support in helping UN Women secure $2.7 million in funding (over three years) from the Royal Norwegian Embassy (RNE) on Gender Based Governance. Thirty percent of this funding was earmarked for improving the capacity of the women’s caucus in the National Assembly. Before joining UNW, he served as a Senior Adviser (Local Governance) and Knowledge Manager of the Malawi German Program for Democratic Decentralisation. His practical expertise includes international election observation, political party mentorship, capacity building for women’s caucus and other governance committees of parliament, monitoring for results, developing strategic partnerships and translating research output into actionable innovative strategies for training, advocacy and strategic decisions. In Liberia, he was part of Carter Centre Long Term Election Observation team for the 2005 historical elections that saw Africa electing the first female president. The Former US President Jimmy Carter headed the mission to Liberia. In 2011, he was part of the Short Term Observation Team and his two-member team was recognized as the most outstanding team of the 2011 joint Carter Center and EISA Election Observation mission.
A local governance specialist, Mr. Chavula holds a master’s degree in development studies from University of Free State (South Africa). He also holds a bachelor’s degree in education from Mzuzu University. In 2015, he completed a postgraduate diploma in Monitoring and Evaluation with Stellenbosch University (South Africa). He holds several management, facilitation and leadership certificates. The most recent being a certificate in Essentials of Anti-Corruption. In recognition of his leadership qualities, he was selected to be part of the 1st British Council Interaction program (a high profile Pan African British Council initiative that supported emerging African leaders in 19 countries).
