Through a global coalition involving UNDP, UNICEF, WHO and the World Bank, Roll Back Malaria is helping health systems deliver cost-effective interventions including: better health care, insecticide-treated bednets and improved environmental management. At the same time Roll Back Malaria is harnessing the support of both the public and private sector in developing new malaria drugs and vaccines. The Roll Back Malaria partnership is working in all countries where malaria is a health problem, and focusing its greatest efforts in Africa where most malaria deaths occur.
