  This World Malaria Day : Grasp the moment. Protect lives now. Fund a malaria-free future

National leadership is driving this forward. Momentum is building.

   Now We Can. Now We Must.

Make a malaria-free future a reality.

  Vaccines: A major breakthrough. To date, vaccines are rolling out in 25 countries, protecting millions of children. Chemoprevention : Seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) now reaches 54 million children. Perennial malaria chemoprevention (PMC) is also expanding. Improved treatment of children : More febrile children are being diagnosed and treated with effective medicines (ACTs) than in the past. We can end malaria. Not someday, but in our lifetime.

Funding is what gets new vaccines, treatments, and tools out of labs and into the communities that need them most.

  Sustain & scale funding, with efficiency: Commit to sustained, diversified financing—both international and domestic. In an era of real financial constraints, every dollar must work harder. We must prioritize high-impact, data-driven interventions and deliver optimized responses that maximize value and minimize waste.  World Malaria Day 2026 ; April 25th.  Get the Social Media Toolkit!

Support nationally-led programmes that are driving change and tailor interventions to local needs for maximum impact.

Addressing the threat of Antimalarial drug resistance.

Since 2000, 2.3 billion cases and 14 million deaths have been averted. To date, 47 countries have been certified malaria-free (of which two in 2024 and three in 2025), while 37 countries reported fewer than 1000 cases in 2024. Success is possible, even in tough areas: The Greater Mekong Subregion proves elimination is achievable, with cases falling by nearly 90% despite long-standing drug resistance. Between 2000 and 2024, the number of malaria-endemic countries fell sharply, dropping from 108 to 80. Over the same period:Countries with fewer than 10 000 cases rose from 27 in 2000 to 46 in 2024. Countries with fewer than 100 indigenous cases increased from 6 to 26. Countries with fewer than 10 indigenous cases increased from 4 to 24. But the global situation is stalling: In 2024, there were an estimated 282 million cases and 610,000 deaths—a slight increase from 2023. According to the World Malaria Report 2025 , progress is at risk:Biological challenges: Drug resistance : Artemisinin pa...
