Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Africa accounts for 94% of global malaria cases and 95% of malaria deaths, and progress toward elimination has stalled. The crisis is compounded by financing shortfalls, falling official development assistance for health in Africa, and growing resistance to medicines.

The African Union Commission is actively working to unite and galvanize the nations of Africa towards a shared future, often discussing global policy goals and economic development.
