As we usher in 2025, we reflect on an incredible year of growth, collaboration, and creativity – and look forward to an even more impactful year ahead. Kwathu Kollective has solidified its place as the leading hub for Africa’s innovators, creators, and entrepreneurs. This year, we’re taking our mission to new heights with exciting plans for expansion, partnerships, and deeper community engagement.
We’re officially here. What began as Ntha Foundation – a movement built on empowering young creatives and driving innovation – has now evolved into the Kwathu Kollective.
The United Nations Summit of the Future aims to address global challenges by engaging world leaders and stakeholders, with a special emphasis on youth involvement. Malawian youth are encouraged to join the conversation, participate in sustainable projects, and advocate for meaningful change. Kwathu Kollective and the RCO in Malawi are producing a video to guide youth on how to contribute to a sustainable, inclusive future.
Alex Kachepa, Creative Director and Co-Founder of Kwathu Kollective, has been pivotal to the organization’s success alongside founder Nthanda Manduwi for over seven years. His expertise in creative direction, marketing, and business development has significantly shaped their initiatives, particularly the Management Training Program. Although no longer a full-time staff, Alex remains influential on the board, driving digital literacy and creative empowerment in Malawi and beyond.
