A framework for malaria elimination

Overview

The malaria landscape has changed significantly in the last decade: funding has increased, coverage of life-saving tools has been scaled up, burden has decreased and more countries are pursuing elimination. This framework is fully aligned with the Global technical strategy for malaria 2016–2030 and addresses updates to policy and practice.

The document provides guidance on the tools, activities and strategies required to achieve malaria elimination and prevent re-establishment of transmission in countries, regardless of where they lie across the spectrum of transmission intensity. It is intended to inform national malaria elimination strategic plans and should be adapted to local contexts.
