Zoom Webinar

The Greater Mekong Subregion has made unprecedented progress towards malaria control and elimination. The region has made a commitment to eliminate Plasmodium falciparum by 2023 and all forms of malaria by 2030. Whilst it is early to measure the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on malaria cases and deaths, the GMS region has reported a 27% decline in malaria cases in 2020 compared to 2019. Countries in the GMS have moved fast to adapt strategies and guidelines for malaria service delivery, training and program implementation. In this webinar, we speak to malaria programs and civil society organizations regarding strategies used to maintain momentum towards malaria elimination, despite challenges posed by the pandemic.
