Social Services 1907-1967
Collection: Malawi Under Colonial Rule, in Government Reports, 1907–1967 Volumes Social Services 1907-1967
The social services provided by the colonial administration in Nyasaland were skeletal and rudimentary, as many writers have testified. Education and Medical/Health services, for example, were very much in the hands of the various missions. In 1954 the responsibility for non-African Education and higher education was assumed by the Federal Government, henceforth non-African Education are Federal reports. The Medical/Health reports are extensive; those from 1954-1963 are Federal reports on Public Health. The Labour reports are principally concerned with the export of Nyasa workers to countries such as South Africa, Southern Rhodesia and Northern Rhodesia, and the money that the colonial government hoped to obtain from this export of labour.
