USAID-supported Programs

In addition to PMI program support, USAID provides targeted support to malaria control efforts in one country in Africa (Burundi) and supports malaria control and elimination in Latin America and the Caribbean.

PMI provides targeted financial support to World Health Organization (WHO) headquarters in Geneva as well as to WHO regional offices in Africa, South East Asia, and the Americas. PMI and the USAID Africa Bureau provide support to increase the technical and human resource capacity of the WHO Africa Regional Office (WHO/AFRO) to address malaria and other health issues with African Ministries of Health through assistance on setting norms, adopting internationally approved policies and practices, and improving monitoring and evaluation of national programs.

Latin America and the Caribbean

Central America, with only 11,955 reported cases in 2015, may now be closer to reaching malaria elimination than any other subregion in the world, and several South American countries are also approaching elimination. USAID provides technical assistance to Latin America and the Caribbean countries through key partners including the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) in order to accelerate progress toward elimination. The focus of this assistance is to support countries in tailoring their approaches for malaria diagnosis, treatment, vector control, and surveillance to their specific epidemiology.
