“I have found MIPP to be an essential part of my professional development over the years. MIPP has provided me with access to resource information and it has broaden my professional contacts with experienced planners, allowing me to have a sense of security and trust.”

“MIPP as a planning professional body has helped a lot in trying to discipline planners who perform tasks contrary to the provisions of the field. As a Student MIPP member, I have also benefited to acquire knowledge from the experienced planners by interacting with them”

“Physical planning is a noble profession entrusted with the responsibility of making the face of the earth aesthetically and efficiently hospitable in an orderly manner, not just for the human being but also for the whole creation. I see MIPP to be in a position to advocate and see to it that this happens in Malawi. MIPP does this through seminars, CPDs, publications, trainings, consultancy, and so forth”

“As a professional body for physical Planners in Malawi, MIPP provides a Platform for Planners to dissuss issues in the Planning field and provides an opportunity for Planners to network. I once benefitted from a Career Development programme that was organized for by the Institute in Salima. Among another things we looked at how land use planning is key in the management of floods which affects human settlements.”
