Droughts and floods, the most severe of these hazards, have increased in frequency, intensity, and magnitude over the past twenty years, with dire consequences on food and water security, water quality, energy resources, and sustainable livelihoods of the most rural communities.

In the last three decades, Malawi has experienced increasing climate change impacts, including more frequent and severe droughts and floods, which have significantly affected agriculture, water resources, and human health. These changes have led to food insecurity, reduced crop yields, and increased vulnerability to diseases associated with these extreme weather events.

In the last three decades, Colombia has experienced significant impacts from climate change, including increased temperatures, altered rainfall patterns, and more frequent extreme weather events. These changes have led to issues like decreased water availability, agricultural challenges, and increased vulnerability to natural disasters

In addition to floods, in the last few decades Malawi has experienced droughts during the 1978/79, 1981/82, 1991/92 and 1993/94 crop growing seasons. Therefore Malawi is highly vulnerable to climate change under even modest temperature increases.

In 2015 and 2016, Malawi experienced serious and unprecedented floods and droughts due to climate change, with effects on key socio-economic sectors and, consequently, on the economy.

The Malawi economy is agro based with agriculture contributing 37% of the national GDP and employing 80% of the total workforce. Main exports are tobacco, tea, sugar, apparel and clothing, cotton, nuts, pulses, sawn & plied wood, natural rubber, coffee, spices, hides & skins and wooden furniture.

Major imports are petroleum products, fertilizer, manufactured goods, equipment and machinery. The economy has largely been import dependent and this has necessitated policy shift towards enhancing production and export. Malawi has to this effect, worked hard to improve the environment for doing business and macroeconomic stability which are the cornerstones for profitable investment.

Malawi is particularly prone to adverse climate hazards that include dry spells, seasonal droughts, intense rainfall, riverine floods, and flash floods. Droughts and floods, the most severe of these hazards, have increased in frequency, intensity, and magnitude over the past twenty years, with dire consequences on food and water security, water quality, energy resources, and sustainable livelihoods of the most rural communities. From 1979 to 2008, 2,596 people perished due to natural disasters, and nearly another 21.7 million people were adversely affected. Floods and droughts are the leading cause of chronic food security, which is endemic in many parts of the country.

The main source of Malawi's economy is agriculture, as in Colombia. The SDGs are fundamental in terms of the development of countries, there are 17. Number 8 is especially related to the economy, and says that the country must have decent employment and economic development. Both countries find it difficult to meet this goal due to labor exploitation and because their main economic source is difficult to improve or increase their profits. They may try to go for more industrial sectors, although it may not be efficient due to the environment of the countries, especially Malawi.
