On 6 November 2013, WHO/ PAHO honoured initiatives from three malaria-endemic countries with the ‘Malaria Champions of the Americas Awards’. The Malaria Champions of the Americas awards were given to Colombia (Colombia Malaria Project), the Dominican Republic (National Center for Control of Tropical Diseases), and Brazil (Secretariat of Health of the State of Acre). The Malaria Champions of the Americas was launched in 2008 to identify, celebrate and inspire excellence in efforts to fight the disease.
The MESA grants will support operational research on preventing the spread, or reintroduction, of malaria transmission between neighboring areas, or from hotspots/pockets of transmission. Dear Readers,
We are very excited to be connecting with you through MalariaWorld. The Malaria Eradication Scientific Alliance – MESA - will feature the ever growing evidence base in malaria elimination, from science, to lessons learned, and policy.
