Every year, malaria kills one million people
|
| Malaria causes 3000 deaths per day - mainly in Africa : Every 30 seconds a child dies from malaria |
Controlling malaria will contribute significantly to the United Nations (UN)
Millennium Development Goals, which all 192 UN Member States have
pledged to achieve by 2015.
| The RBM Partnership seeks to
halve the burden of malaria by
2010 |
Beyond reducing the disease burden, a
successful fight against malaria will have far-reaching impact on child
mortality, maternal health, and poverty, which in turn could increase global
stability.
