Founded in 1996 by American educator and author Pamela Brooke, Story Workshop Educational Trust (SWET) is a Malawian media organization committed to transforming communities through powerful social and behavior change communication.
Our mission is to bridge the gap between knowledge and action by creating relatable, impactful content that addresses everyday challenges in Malawi.

SWET uses edutainment—a blend of entertainment and education—to deliver critical messages on issues like food security, health, HIV/AIDS, human rights, and gender. By grounding our work in Malawian culture and employing frameworks like Ethnocentrism and the Social Ecological Model (SEM), we connect deeply with audiences, ensuring our content is culturally relevant and capable of inspiring change at both individual and community levels.

Through engaging media, community outreach, and mobilization, SWET reaches millions of Malawians, advancing Sustainable Development Goals related to poverty, gender equality, and health. By merging knowledge with real-life experiences, we foster positive behavior change that creates lasting impact.
