Malaria Elimination
Asian Development Bank | December 2015
Abstract
The Regional Malaria and Other Communicable Disease Threats Trust Fund was set up in
December with the specific remit to support developing member countries to develop
multi-country, cross-border, and multisector responses to urgent malaria and other
communicable disease issues. The Trust Fund works on the premise that the “business-as-usual”
response to malaria and other communicable disease threats is bound to fail, and progress
demands innovative approaches. It also takes malaria elimination as an entry point to health
systems strengthening and regional health security. This report lays out ADB’s plan of action for
the Trust Fund, and describes the many projects already under way.
