In 2015, the publication partnered with Facebook for the Free Basics initiative to enable people in Malawi to have free access to news and current affairs without being charged data as the country has one of the highest data charges; yet only 5% of the total population access the internet.

In 2015, Médecins Sans Frontières in Malawi threatened Malawi24 with legal action after publishing an article citing a BBC report that claimed HIV infection rates had doubled in Malawi.^[4] In its report, BBC had used data provided by MSF for areas where circumcision was also being promoted as a strategy for curbing HIV infection. BBC edited its version after a public outcry on its Facebook page after the Malawi24 report. The threat for legal action did not materialize despite the publication not retracting the story as MSF had demanded.
