Abstract

Malawi is classified as a least developed country (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, 2022). Prisons in the country are operating over 200% capacity across the system of 30 facilities. There is continual concern around threat to health and life of people living in these prisons due to scarce resources, severe overcrowding, inadequate environmental health conditions, weak infrastructure, disease outbreaks and food poverty. Airborne, environmental and sexual transmission of disease in these prisons create substantial public health challenges.
