Wilson Feluzi Mkandawire

My name is Wilson Feluzi Mkandawire. I hold a Bachelors Degree in Public Health from the University of Livingstonia - Laws Campus. I am currently working with Rural Development Partners as a WASH Project Officer. I also have prior work experience with RDP, as I interned from 2017 to 2018. My internship with RDP gave me the opportunity to build on my experience in WASH, to work in a rural setting, and also helped me build my personal and interpersonal skills. What I found interesting during my internship is the amazing culture and positive values. Plus, RDP’s dedication to its purpose and priorities. This has been the key motivating factor towards my desire to work and advance my career with RDP.
