St Andrea Kaggwa Parish, located in Area 49, Lilongwe, has set up the Kaggwa Media Team. The team comprises youth from the parish who have been given the mandate of enhancing communication among the parish’s over 7,000 parishioners. They currently manage the Parish’s social media communications.

The media team plans to establish a periodic newsletter. To improve their technical capabilities for this endeavour, Austin Madinga was asked to provide basic training to the youth.

The first session of the youth media training focused on designing a basic newsletter in Canva. Austin gave an overview of Canva’s collaborative features and introduced the media team to AI tools like Grammarly, Gemini, and ChatGPT to assist them in improving the grammar and flow of their articles.
