The Malaria Atlas Project (MAP) is a global research initiative that provides high-resolution, evidence-based spatial data on malaria transmission, risk and impact. MAP combines field data, satellite imagery, and advanced geostatistical modelling to deliver open-access maps, datasets, and analytical... tools that support malaria control and elimination strategies worldwide. MAP empowers researchers, policymakers, and public health practitioners by providing them with accurate, up-to-date geographic insights to inform resource allocation and intervention planning.

Beyond Malaria is an educational short film that explores the wider social, economic and health system issues related to controlling malaria in sub-Saharan Africa. Moving beyond the clinical aspects of the disease, the film highlights structural inequalities, poverty, access barriers and community-l...evel realities that hinder the effective prevention and treatment of malaria. Through interviews, case studies and on-the-ground footage, the film emphasises the importance of integrating public health efforts with the local context, community engagement and sustainable development strategies. Ultimately, the film advocates a more holistic approach to malaria, considering not only the parasite and the patient, but also the systems and societies in which they exist.

This video highlights the significant risks that malaria poses to pregnant and breastfeeding women in malaria-endemic regions. It follows the stories of Angavu from Kenya, Moyinoluwa from Nigeria and Lamai from Thailand. It emphasises the severe consequences that malaria can have during pregnancy, i...ncluding miscarriage, stillbirth, low birth weight and maternal death. Due to safety concerns, pregnant women are often excluded from antimalarial drug trials, which causes long delays in effective medicines becoming available for this vulnerable group. To address this issue, the Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV) launched the Malaria in Mothers and Babies (MiMBa) initiative, which aims to accelerate the discovery, development, and delivery of safe antimalarial treatments for pregnant and breastfeeding women. The initiative aims to close critical gaps in research, drug development, and access, ensuring that these women and their babies are better protected against malaria. The video calls for continued efforts to address the needs of underserved populations most affected by malaria.

This video explores the impact of rapid urbanisation on the transmission of malaria, highlighting that, although the burden of malaria remains highest in rural areas, the majority of people in malaria-endemic countries will soon reside in urban areas. It explains how well-planned urbanisation can re...duce malaria by improving access to healthcare and infrastructure, whereas rapid, unplanned urban growth may increase the risk, particularly among the urban poor.

The Ghana National Malaria Strategic Plan 2021–2025 aims to reduce malaria mortality by 90% and malaria cases by 50% (using 2019 as baseline) and to achieve pre-elimination in at least six districts by 2025. The plan focuses on scaling up prevention measures like distributing insecticide-treated n...ets, indoor residual spraying, seasonal chemoprevention, and prevention in pregnancy. It also emphasizes universal access to prompt diagnosis and effective treatment, strengthening health system governance, improving supply chains, mobilizing resources, and enhancing surveillance. Special attention is given to vulnerable groups and high-burden areas to ensure equity and sustainability in the fight against malaria.

The Rwanda Malaria Strategic Plan 2020–2024 outlines Rwanda’s national strategy to reduce malaria morbidity and mortality by at least 50% compared to 2019 levels. The vision is a malaria-free Rwanda contributing to socioeconomic development.
The plan includes strengthening prevention through lo...ng-lasting insecticide-treated nets, indoor residual spraying, and larval source management; ensuring universal access to testing and treatment; improving surveillance and data use; and enhancing program management, coordination, and financing. It also emphasizes community engagement and behavior change to ensure at least 85% of the at-risk population adopts protective practices.
The strategy builds on past lessons, involves multi-sectoral collaboration, and aligns with global malaria goals. It highlights equity, quality services, and evidence-based interventions as guiding principles, aiming to mobilize national and international resources for sustained impact.

Integrated Outbreak Analytics (IOA) applies a multidisciplinary approach to understanding outbreak dynamics and to inform outbreak response. It aims to drive comprehensive, accountable, and effective public health and clinical strategies by enabling communities, and national and subnational health a...uthorities to use data for operational decision-making. IOA embraces a holistic perspective of outbreak dynamics throughout: from the trigger questions to the data that are collected or accessed, to the interpretation of results and the recommendations that follow. In addition, IOA promotes co-development and monitoring of evidence informed actions.
The IOA toolkit aims to provide a clear understanding of IOA and highlight the importance of using an integrated, holistic approach to manage outbreak responses. It provides step-by-step guidance for setting up IOA and putting IOA principles into action. Finally, this toolkit provides guidance on applying IOA in humanitarian and emergency contexts, offering a practical and adaptable approach to informing public health emergency responses.
Developed based on the model from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), its creation involved extensive consultation with experts experienced in IOA applications. The toolkit was piloted in Tanganyika Province, DRC, as well as Somalia and Sudan, demonstrating its adaptability to diverse emergency scenarios. It builds upon an existing array of tools, templates, reports, case studies, animations, and publications used by stakeholders in diverse contexts.

Последние десятилетия в психиатрии оказались революционными. Современные лекарства и реабилитационные программы дали возможность большинству лиц с психическим... расстройствами вести привычный образ жизни. Казалось бы, ушли в прошлое времена, когда клеймо «сумасшедший» отражало тяжелое состояние больного и драматизм его существования: многолетнее содержание в больнице, мучительные способы лечения, страх и агрессия окружающих. Однако именно сейчас психиатрический диагноз для многих является проблемой, нередко более актуальной, чем само заболевание.
