Le partenariat Roll Back Malaria (RBM) est le cadre mondial pour une action coordonnée contre le paludisme. Il offre une plateforme neutre pour favoriser le consensus et développer des solutions aux défis liés à la mise en œuvre des interventions et des stratégies de la lutte contre le paludisme. Le partenariat s'efforce de maintenir le paludisme comme une priorité sur l'agenda international. Fort de l'expertise, des ressources et de l'engagement de plus de 500 organismes partenaires, RBM fournit des conseils concernant les politiques à adopter, ainsi qu'un soutien financier et technique pour les efforts de lutte contre le paludisme dans les différents pays.
More on RBM key facts & achievements [en anglais]
- Lead global initiative for forging consensus and for mobilizing and coordinating action and resources in the fight against malaria.
- Over 500 Partners, including all major funders (GFATM, World Bank, UNITAID, USAID, DFID, France, Gates Foundation, UN Foundation, UNICEF, etc.) and alliances (IFRC, FIND, IVCC, MMV, MEG, MVI, etc.) working with endemic countries.
- 25-member Board represents all 7 constituencies of Partnership (malaria endemic countries, donor governments, multilateral organizations, foundations, NGOs, private sector, research institutions).
- Parent body for development and launch of Global Malaria Action Plan (GMAP) in September 2008, providing international blueprint for achieving the MDG-plus targets of universal prevention and treatment coverage by 2010, near-zero mortality by 2015, sustainable elimination, and - ultimately - eradication of malaria.
- Inclusive thematic mechanisms - subcommittees, working groups, task forces - ensure expert advice and consensus on malaria control strategies and interventions (advocacy, procurement & supply of commodities, tracking country progress, vector control, case management, forecasting of commodity needs, M & E, etc.), as well as tracking of GMAP implementation.
- High level advocacy has driven e.g. launch in 2008 of World Malaria Day (25 April); establishment of African Leaders Malaria Alliance (ALMA) in 2009; United Against Malaria (UAM) campaign in 2010. International malaria media coverage increased from 9700 articles in 2007 to over 17,200 articles in 2009.
- Focus by RBM Harmonization Working Group (HWG) on assisting endemic countries to access grants by Global Fund has resulted in surge of grant approvals. During 2008-2009, more than 40 countries were supported to develop malaria proposals and 45 of 72 (62%) of these proposals were successful, for a total of $4.3 billion.
- Innovative funding and supply mechanisms conceived for accelerating access to commodities, e.g. Affordable Medicines Facility for Malaria (AFMm), a global ACT subsidy managed by the Global Fund; Assured Artemisinin Supply System, currently funded by UNITAID and implemented by a consortium of RBM Partners; NetGuarantee, launched by Malaria No More, guarantees payments to manufacturers to advance procurement and accelerate delivery of mosquito bednets (LLINs); "SMS for Life" pilot project aims to reduce stockouts of essential malarial treatments in district health facilities.
- More than 70% of sub-Saharan African countries have mobilized the financial resources needed to meet at least 80% of their LLIN and ACT needs to achieve universal coverage.
- Over 200 million LLINs procured and distributed in countries during 2007-2009. Significant progress in provision of ACT treatments, Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS), Rapid Diagnostic Tests (RDT), and Intermittent Preventive Treatment (IPT) for pregnant women and infants.
- Endemic countries supported to develop national malaria strategic plans for GMAP implementation. 47 countries or territories in sub-Saharan Africa developed roadmaps to achieve the 2010 Universal Coverage Targets.
- Malaria Eradication Research Agenda (malERA) project launched in November 2008 to establish R&D agenda and prioritize future funding in support of malaria elimination & eradication.
- WHO World Malaria Report 2009 notes high impact of control interventions on malaria cases and deaths in a lengthening list of countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America.
