Bridging data and impact to create lasting change

Wanangwa Ernest Chiziwa

Driving Educational Excellence Through Data

I'm Wanangwa Ernest Chiziwa, a data analyst, M&E specialist, and social entrepreneur passionate about leveraging technology and data to transform educational outcomes and drive climate resilience in Malawi and beyond.

As Co-founder & Director of Business Technology & Innovation at Green Innovation Network (GIN), I lead initiatives that promote economic and climate resilience through agri-energy solutions. Currently also serving as a Data Analyst for the Malawi Education Reform Program (MERP), I work closely with the Ministry of Education and World Bank to ensure data-driven decision making that impacts thousands of students across the nation.

My journey spans from IT specialist roles to research positions, always with a focus on creating sustainable, measurable impact. I believe in the power of mentorship, which led me to create MentorMe, an innovative EdTech platform connecting aspiring professionals with experienced mentors across Malawi.
