🌏A Catalyst for Malaria Elimination

Ahead of the Korea-Africa Foreign Ministers' Meeting, Korean advocates, civil society organizations, and the K-Bio sector have united to call for stronger leadership and investment in the fight against malaria.

Ending malaria for good is possible, but it will take sustained coordination and collaboration to make it a reality!

Last month in Bangkok, Thailand, the APMEN Joint Working Groups Meeting brought together national malaria programme leaders and technical experts from across the Asia Pacific region to tackle the next phase of malaria elimination. 🌏🤝

Malaria Consortium was proud to be part of the conversation, with our colleagues contributing to a number of key discussions:

▪️Hannah Edwards (Head of Surveillance, Monitoring and Evaluation) presented on RBM Partnership to End Malaria tools and national malaria programme experiences in malaria surveillance data quality

▪️Lieven Vernaeve (Programme Manager) shared best practices and challenges from local implementation of malaria surveillance across the Lao PDR-Cambodia border

Malaria is at a crossroads🚦

Decades of progress have saved millions of lives—but today, that progress is under threat from funding gaps, resistance, climate shocks, and fragile health systems.

⭐️“Communities are not passive recipients of aid—they are engines of change.”🌳

From village health workers to local activists, communities are leading the fight against malaria—reaching those most in need and closing critical gaps in care.

Now is the moment to invest, to listen, and to act—together.
Because ending malaria is not a question of possibility, but of commitment.
