The Malaria Policy Center, a project of Malaria No More, works to raise awareness and galvanize support to address the global fight against malaria. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., the Center works with the global health community to engage policy leaders in the United States and in the other donor nations to advance efforts to defeat malaria worldwide.

The Policy Center:

• Conducts research and analysis of the malaria field to provide a robust assessment and corresponding policy agenda for the issue
• Educates policymakers, the media and other opinion leaders on the issue of malaria, including its scope, impact and needed interventions
• Raises awareness and support for malaria among the G8 and other donor-nations
• Leverage support to enact effective policies to ensure a significant and sustained investment in funding to fight malaria.

About Malaria No More

Malaria No More's mission is simple: to end deaths due to malaria. The world has known how to beat this disease for more than a century, yet it remains the number one killer of children under five in Africa, claiming more than 1 million lives a year. Malaria No More works to raise the profile of the disease among the public, policymakers, and businesses, while engaging the private sector to provide life-saving bed nets and other critical interventions to families in Africa.
