It also analyses sustainable development in the light of democracy in Malawi and local reactions to the former by the citizens. The paper contends that development aid needs to be linked to the notion of local development in Malawi. It notes that development was a key word that was popularly used during the reign of the founding president of Malawi, Dr Kamuzu Hastings Banda (1964 to 1994). For Banda, it was critical to have development which simply meant food security, decent housing and clothes. The paper also pays attention to local actors’ responses to development aid. O objetivo deste artigo é traçar a evolução da ajuda ao desenvolvimento no Malawi desde 1964, quando o país se tornou independente, até à data. Também analisa o desenvolvimento sustentável à luz da democracia no Malawi e as reações locais dos cidadãos. O texto defende que a ajuda ao desenvolvimento deve estar ligada à noção de desenvolvimento local no Malawi. Faz notar que desenvolvimento era uma palavra chave utilizada popularmente durante o reinado do presidente fundador do Malawi, o Dr. Kamuzu Hasting Banda (1964 a 1994). Para Banda, era fundamental ter um desenvolvimento que significava simplesmente segurança alimentar, habitação digna e vestuário. O artigo trata também das respostas dos atores locais à ajuda ao desenvolvimento.
