Global Technical Strategy for Malaria 2016–2030

TheĀ Global Technical Strategy for Malaria 2016-2030 was approved by the World Health Assembly in May 2015. The strategy provides a framework to formulate customized programs that will accelerate the progress towards the elimination of malaria.

The strategy emphasizes the need of universal coverage in basic anti-malaria interventions for all groups at risk. It also highlights the importance of using quality monitoring data for decision making. It mentions areas where innovative solutions will be fundamental to achieve the objectives and finally, it provides a summary of estimated costs for the implementation of the strategy.

In developing the strategy, efforts were made to align it as closely as possible with the Action and Investment Plan to Defeat Malaria 2016-2030 (AIM) – for a malaria-free world- of the Roll Back Malaria Partnership, in order to ensure that the two instruments share the same objectives and complement each other.
