Today marks an exciting milestone in the cultural and educational landscape of Lilongwe with the official launch of Pabwalo — a name that beautifully translates to “the knowledge square for citizens”.
Located within the National Library Service headquarters in the heart of the city, Pabwalo emerges as a vibrant, multipurpose space designed to inspire learning, creativity and collaboration.
A space for everyone
The room is suitable for workshops, events, screenings, performances and meetings. It gives the library a flexible public stage where ideas can be shared and new audiences can meet books, authors and each other.
Our doors are open — physically and digitally. Step in, log on, and discover a library built for the nation's future.
We invite schools, artists, community organisations and businesses to talk to us about using Pabwalo. Enquiries can be sent to info@nls.mw.
