PMI: Presidents Malaria Initiative - Saving lives in Africa.

Rwanda

 

Malaria in Rwanda
During the last few years, Rwanda has made significant progress in scaling up malaria control interventions, and Ministry of Health statistics show declines in malaria cases since 2005. By the end of 2010, malaria morbidity and mortality had substantially declined; with only 663,785 reported malaria cases, of which 96 percent were laboratory confirmed. Malaria-attributed morbidity (fever cases with laboratory confirmation of malaria) decreased from 16 percent in 2009 to about 8 percent in 2010.

The Malaria Operational Plans (MOPs) below are detailed one-year implementation plans for PMI in Rwanda. Each MOP briefly reviews the current status of malaria control and prevention policies and interventions, identifies challenges and unmet needs, and describes planned activities under PMI. These MOPs have been endorsed by the Global Malaria Coordinator and reflect collaborative discussions with national malaria control programs and partners in country.
