Who we are

As the flagship global service delivery project of the U.S. President’s
Malaria Initiative PMI, the PMI Impact Malaria team works with national
malaria programs to fight malaria and save lives by strengthening diagnosis,
treatment, and drug-based prevention for those most at risk, particularly
children and pregnant women. PMI Impact Malaria IM is led by Population
Services International PSI in partnership with Jhpiego, Medical Care
Development International, and the Malaria Elimination Initiative at
University of California San Francisco.

IM’s global goal is to reduce morbidity and mortality due to malaria and move
countries towards national or subnational pre-elimination. To achieve this
goal, IM supports National Malaria Control Program Managers NMCPs to help
tackle malaria service delivery challenges by

Closing the gaps in malaria service delivery to get the best medicine, with
the correct diagnosis, to the right patients, in the timeliest manner.
Unlocking the potential of key drug-based approaches, helping countries to
introduce, implement, and scale-up proven innovations to move countries
forward in their elimination efforts, according to each country’s unique
malaria situation.

Strengthening malaria health systems and a rigorous use of data to link
operational research and country-led dialogue with global technical leadership
for the means of accelerating strategic service delivery improvements and
advancing key learnings.

In each country, IM builds on key lessons learned from the PMI-funded
Improving Malaria Diagnostics IMaD project 2008-2013 and MalariaCare
2013-2018. IMaD was mandated to focus solely on malaria diagnosis.
MalariaCare expanded to include both malaria diagnosis and treatment. The
scope of IM is expanded further to include malaria diagnosis and treatment,
malaria in pregnancy, and new drug-based approaches like seasonal malaria
chemoprevention, mass drug administration and reactive case detection, where
appropriate.
