Community Initiative for Social Empowerment (CISE) is an independent community youth-led non-governmental organization committed to the empowerment of young people in Malawi to take active responsibility for their lives to shape their destiny. Our vision is a free, just and evenhanded world where young people are able to translate their aspirations and potential into productive and fulfilling life. Working in the areas of Justice and Human Rights, Democracy and Governance, Health and Environment, and Livelihoods, we facilitate learning and innovation through partnerships, research, advocacy and public education.
