Zimbabwe USAID-Harare

Description

Malaria prevention and control is a major foreign assistance objective of the U.S. Government (USG). PMI was launched in June 2005 and has expanded to include 25 malaria endemic countries in sub-Saharan Africa and three programs in Southeast Asia. PMI’s mandate is to increase coverage of four effective prevention and treatment measures, with a focus on reaching 85 percent of the most vulnerable groups (children under five years of age and pregnant women). Taking the lead role in PMI, USAID co-implements this program worldwide and in Zimbabwe with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. PMI activities support the Zimbabwe Ministry of Health and Child Care/National Malaria Control Program and the current malaria strategic plan. Zimbabwe’s National Malaria Control Program receives support from two major sources, PMI and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. The most recent Malaria Operational Plans developed for FY 2020 and FY2021 have a proposed budget for Zimbabwe, including funds targeted for the new, malaria bilateral follow-on to ZAPIM, called ZAPIM II. The Malaria Operational Plans were written in collaboration with the National Malaria Control Program and take into consideration the contents of the most recent Zimbabwe Global Fund grant and the National Malaria Control Program strategy.
