George Mwika Kayange's Project Portfolio: Research, Digital and Nonprofit Projects
Welcome to the project portfolio of George Mwika Kayange, PhD: a selection of development research, digital innovation and nonprofit projects delivered in Malawi, Southern Africa and beyond.
This page brings together my work across three areas. Development Research covers studies and reports on development issues in Malawi and beyond. Digital Innovation features web platforms and online tools built for education, travel, and small business support. Nonprofit Expertise showcases projects on disability inclusion, early childhood education, human rights monitoring, among others.
These are just examples, not the full list. In development work alone, I estimate managing over 30 projects in 20+ years. Each project shown reflects hands-on work with real communities and organisations, from evidence-based research to digital tools and support for vulnerable groups.
How this project portfolio is organised
This project portfolio is grouped into three areas so you can quickly find the work that matters most to you. Use the category filters below to browse by theme, or scroll through the full list of projects. Each entry links to its own page with the background, my role and what the project set out to achieve.
Development research projects
My development research projects focus on evidence that helps governments, funders and communities make better decisions. They include a study of the impact of COVID-19 on persons with disabilities, and the assistive technology mapping project for Southern Africa, which builds on my doctoral research into assistive technology ecosystems in the region.
Digital innovation projects
The digital innovation projects in this project portfolio show how practical web platforms and online tools can support education, travel and small business. They include UK Study Connect, Malawi Spotlight and BizLounge, an affiliate marketing automation project.
Nonprofit and inclusive education projects
My nonprofit projects cover disability inclusion, inclusive early childhood education, youth disability advocacy, health services for persons with disabilities and a school library construction project in Malawi. In each case the aim was practical, community-centred change rather than reports that sit on a shelf.
Why this project portfolio matters to partners
If you are an NGO, funder, university or small business looking for a development researcher or project manager, this project portfolio shows the range of work I can bring to your team, from evidence-based studies to digital tools and capacity building. Many of these projects began with a simple conversation, so if you have a similar challenge, I would be glad to hear about it.
