The National Planning Commission (NPC) will hold a National Development Conference from August 27 to August 28 to discuss national long-term development plans and the successor to Vision 2020, dubbed National Transformation 2063. With 1998 to the vision of 2020 coming to an end this year, the NPC has decided to gather information and views from Malawians on the next developmental path they would like to see Malawi take. During a press conference in Lilongwe on Tuesday, Director of Development Planning for NPC, Dr Grace Kumchulesi, said that the conference will provide an opportunity for the stakeholders to have a concern for the views gathered.
She said that a lot of work has been done as a lot of nationwide consultations which engaged different groups of people including the young at community, national and district levels and it will be drafted into the next vision should be a true reflection of what Malawians would like to see. We want to have this vision ready by January 1, 2021.
