2014 Benchmark Report: Living Wage Report for Rural Malawi, Southern Region
Abstract
This report estimates a living wage for rural Malawi for January 2014 with a focus on tea growing region in Southern Malawi (Mulanje District and Thyolo District).1 It uses a new methodology developed by the authors that builds and improves on their earlier work on living wages published by ILO (see Anker, 2006a, 2006b, 2011). This new methodology has been used so far to estimate a living wage for urban areas in ten countries for a multi-national corporation as well as for rural Western Cape Provence South Africa for Fairtrade International with focus on wine grape growing areas and rural Northern Dominican Republic with focus on banana growing areas for Fairtrade International and Social Accountability (SAI).
