"Mission Statement" section is (correctly) tagged by CorenSearchBot as matching text on the Scotland Malawi Partnership website. This text is used with permission of the SMP, although I'm unsure how to substantiate this online? If lengthly quotes such as this are unsuitable for wiki, I will remove/reorganise this section.

I removed the copyright violating section. If it was to be included wholesale (rathe than short quotations) it would need to be licensed under a free license (preferably GFDL). To do so, explain this on this article's discussion page, then either display a notice to this effect at the site of original publication or send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en at wikimedia dot org or a postal letter to the Wikimedia Foundation. These messages must explicitly permit use under the GFDL. CIreland (talk) 17:06, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Some ideas

I don't have the wherewithal to research this but it occurs to me that a) Cedric Robinson has written an essay on how Scotland inspired the Malawian independence movement and b) the Scottish former MP now Lord Jack Mcconnell seems to be obsessed with Malawi (check his hansard) so there's potential jumping off points there in terms of further research on UK Malawi links — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.36.113.248 (talk) 16:22, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
