Dear Anastasia,
Thank you for your interest in DHIS2. 
You have now contacted the University of Oslo, which provides the DHI2 software and DHIS2 support to Malawi and other countries. However, the Malawi DHIS2 database is managed to the Malawian Ministry of Health, Central Monitoring and Evaluation Division, cc-ed. They have the Malawian health data, so you need to contact them to get access to the data.

Best regards,
Jens Kaasbøll
Professor
University of Oslo
