Shining a Light on Katundu
Imbeko partnered with Katundu workshop on the shores of Lake Malawi, where artists led by Lisa Njakale and Philli Mwase create beautiful handmade pieces. Proceeds from Katundu support vital anti-poaching efforts on Likoma Island, helping protect the region’s endangered wildlife.
Magic in Malawi!
On Likoma Island, St Peter’s Cathedral towers above Lake Malawi—a vast Gothic Revival church built over a century ago from local granite. It’s one of the largest cathedrals in Central Africa, a stunning landmark of faith and history.
