On #WorldChildrensDay, we’re reminded that every child deserves the opportunity to grow up healthy and full of potential.
Today, let’s commit to driving innovation and accelerating progress toward malaria elimination.Every step toward ending malaria is a step toward a safer future for every child.

(1/6) As this year's #WorldMosquitoDay campaign comes to a close, we reflect on the global fight against malaria.
Ending malaria doesn't just involve science. Strong policies, cross-border collaboration, and sustained investment are essential. Let’s keep malaria on the global agenda.

Today commemorates the 1897 discovery that female Anopheles mosquitoes transmit malaria to humans. Despite this historic achievement, malaria continues to claim many lives every year. Through research, community action, and global cooperation, we can achieve a malaria-free world!

The Anopheles mosquito, responsible for spreading #malaria, goes through four unique life stages: egg, larva, pupae, and adult.
Understanding malaria begins with understanding the mosquitoes themselves. Read our factsheet below 🔽

We had the honour to meet with H.E Former President Kikwete of Tanzania this Sunday to discuss the international Transmission Zero project.
This meeting served as a powerful reminder of the value of international collaboration, which is essential for driving sustainable progress in public health.
