Malaria Consortium Myanmar

Malaria Consortium’s initial engagement in Myanmar began during the 2005 Malaria Programme Review where the importance of interim support strategies were emphasised during an absence of longer term funding. In 2011, we worked with the Ministry of Health’s Department of Medical Research to conduct the first Artemisinin Resistance Containment baseline survey in Myanmar, which looked at growing resistance to antimalarial drugs. We also provided expertise on malaria prevention and control during the 2012 joint assessment of the response to artemisinin resistance in the region and participated in the initial development of the Global Fund Regional Artemisinin Initiative.
