Networks & partnerships

Malaria Consortium is active across national and regional networks in the countries in which we work, helping to influence policy and practice with our findings, learning and recommendations. We undertake strategic engagement with national, regional and global partners around common goals, advocating for investment in disease burden reduction efforts and goals under SDG3.

We support institutional capacity and leadership development and align with existing decision-making structures such as national technical working groups, promoting evidence uptake into national and global policies. We use our research status to build partnerships with national academic institutions, research bodies, ministries of health and other implementing agencies – enabling us to design and deliver context-specific health interventions and increase the resilience of health systems.

As an NGO leading multiple public health interventions, including chemoprevention and vector control, we share our evidence and learning with partners across global health networks – informing debate around critical issues and improving health outcomes. We are currently involved with the following advocacy platforms. Email [email protected] to begin a partnership with us or find out more.

Partnerships

Malaria Consortium works in partnership with all levels of government, civil society, private sector and implementation partners to support health system resilience, with expert national staff in each country well placed to do this. Our global strategy draws on the global commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals and universal health coverage, the direction of the Global Malaria Strategy (2016-2030) and the renewed focus of the World Health Organization’s High Burden to High Impact response.

In partnership with national programmes, we carry out high quality implementation research to continuously improve existing interventions and approaches and promote evidence uptake into national and global policies. We advocate where we feel change needs to happen and apply adaptive learning across all projects and programmes – ensuring our insight and findings inform our work that of our partners. As part of this, we work alongside national academic institutions across Africa and Southeast Asia, enabling us to optimise the design, delivery and impact of complex health interventions and ensure the uptake of results.
