<p>The UK was a key partner during Malawi's worst ever cholera outbreak in 2022/23,
disbursing emergency funds, deploying an Emergency Medical Team and leveraging additional
funding from other donors in support of the Government of Malawi's response. Although
numbers are much reduced this cholera season, The BHC Lilongwe team continues to monitor
the data and work with Ministry of Health and development partners to support the
response and mitigate the risk of another outbreak. This includes recent new funding
for resilience and preparedness activities in affected districts through our bilateral
health programme, as well as pulling in support from a Centrally Managed health security
programme (TDDAP2) to build the capacity of Malawi's health system and institutions
to prevent, detect and respond to health emergencies such as cholera.</p>
