Malaria

In the past decade, remarkable advances have been made in treating and preventing malaria. Better medicines and long-lasting bed nets have been developed.

Donor funding for malaria control has dramatically increased from $153 million in 2000 to over $1 billion in 2010.

Indeed, the focus of many countries has recently shifted from malaria control to malaria elimination. Not surprisingly, this rapid infusion of new technology, increased funding, and policy reform has created a new set of challenges for the governments of malaria endemic countries.

The Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI), a separate, affiliated entity, works in partnership with governments to address these challenges, creating evidence-based solutions tailor-made to each unique situation.
