United States of America (USA) Ambassador, Virginia Palmer, has awarded K59.5 million grants to nine organisations working with people with disabilities across Malawi through the Ambassador's HIV and AIDS Small Grants Fund.

Palmer says that the organisations are implementing programmes which help to promote access to health services, adding that the grants are given directly to beneficiaries in the communities.

She argues that, "People with disabilities are equal citizens of Malawi and the world, who are entitled to the same rights and privileges as all people in terms of education, health, and economic opportunities.”
