Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of the support mechanisms for orphan’s schooling at secondary education in Malawi by analyzing the trends of orphan’s assistance in sub-Saharan Africa. In Malawi, NGOs and government actively provide scholarship programs for vulnerable children including orphans at secondary school. Above all, the support of NGOs, which is more extensive than the governmental one, focuses on orphan’s empowerment and support of post-secondary education. In this case, it is characteristic that a close relationship is built up between orphans and NGO’s staffs so that orphans feel at ease in their lives. On the other hand, such NGOs generally tend to aid female orphans and the orphans from targeted communities. As a result, the equal opportunity to receive educational support cannot be guaranteed among orphans at school level. In this regard, it would be necessary to harmonize the support provided by different organizations within the support mechanisms for orphan’s schooling.
