World Malaria Day 2024: On 25 April, World Malaria Day 2024 will be marked under the theme “Accelerating the fight against malaria for a more equitable world”
who.int/campaigns/world-malaria-day/2024
Quick Glance: Combatting Malaria: Challenges and Solutions
- Progress in reducing malaria has stalled in recent years, especially in African regions. Pregnant women, young children, and other vulnerable groups continue to have limited access to malaria services.
