Evidence snapshot for Blantyre
Chikwanekwane, Blantyre's hospital-based one-stop centre, co-locates paediatricians, police, social workers and counsellors to serve child survivors of sexual abuse, and reliably delivered medical examination and HIV testing to all 228 children seen between August 2012 and June 2013, with 73.8% of guardians satisfied. However, only 18% of children received all guideline-required services, 27.1% of cases reached criminal conviction, and just 29% received social-welfare home visits, primarily due to lack of transport. The centre saw fewer than 50 patients per month between 2014 and 2018, which evaluators described as insufficient to meet the scale of need in Malawi.
