About Malaria No More

Malaria No More has one and only one mission: ending malaria deaths in Africa.

The world has known how to defeat malaria for more than a century, yet it remains the number one killer of children under five in Africa, claiming more than one million lives a year. Malaria No More (MNM) works to raise the profile of the disease among the public, policymakers, and businesses, while engaging both the public and private sector to provide life-saving bed nets and other critical interventions to families in Africa.

Our role as a catalyst is to maximize opportunities to save lives through communications, resources and investments. Each area of our work leverages the others to form a virtuous cycle for impact. We make high-yield investments of time and capital to speed progress, unlock resources, mobilize new assets and spur the world toward reaching this goal.

Headquartered in Washington, D.C., the MPC has worked tirelessly to turn the malaria challenge into the first great humanitarian victory of the 21^st Century.

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;
• Leverages support to enact effective policies to ensure a significant and sustained investment in funding to fight malaria;
• Builds coalitions among world policymakers in an effort to maximize the effectiveness of policies and investments; and
• In addition to supporting the work of groups like the new African Leaders Malaria Alliance, the MPC works closely with the Congressional Malaria Caucus on Capitol Hill, Roll Back Malaria Consortium and other key coalitions and organizations. To assist the MPC in its global reach, it works with MNM affiliates and teams in the United Kingdom, Canada, the Netherlands, Senegal and Tanzania.
