Lowering the burden in high-transmission settings

  • Achieving effective coverage with malaria curative and preventive services; 
  • Improving the quality and timeliness of information systems for decision-making to further reduce malaria transmission;
  • Reducing the malaria burden to a sufficiently low level to enable the implementation of parasite-clearance strategies.
Eliminating malaria in low-transmission settings
  • Interrupting malaria transmission;
  • Reporting and responding to all confirmed cases, and preventing continued transmission;
  • Determining the underlying causes of residual transmission;
  • Maintaining and documenting malaria elimination.

Preventing the reintroduction of malaria transmission

  • Notifying all confirmed cases of malaria;
  • Detecting any possible reintroduction of malaria transmission;
  • Determining the underlying causes of resumed malaria transmission;
  • Applying rapid curative and preventive measures.
