We are a non-profit organization (NGO), based in Rumphi district, northern part of Malawi. It was formed in 2002 and initially funded by Germany embassy. Formerly known as Rumphi young politicians union and later changed to ROSCHER Youth Development Centre.
The Roscher Youth Development Centre was at the beginning very much supported by the German Embassy in Malawi. The former Ambassador Peter Woeste got the idea to support the youth in Rumphi. He advocated the initiative of a youth centre in Rumphi where the youth can come together, learn together, and enjoy together. And he got the idea to give the youth centre the Name of the first German geograph and explorer Albrecht Roscher (1836–1860) (German). The Embassy spend the money for the bulding of the youth centre. Many thanks to the Ambassador Peter Woerste. Since 2002 we are supporting young Malawians to get into a better life. All hat we do is voluntary work.
