About Malaria partners zambia
Welcome to Malaria Partners Zambia!
At Malaria Partners Zambia, we are honored to be part of a global movement with a profound mission: to ignite an international Rotarian campaign to end malaria. Our commitment to this vision extends far and wide, transcending borders and reaching communities all across Zambia.
Our journey towards malaria elimination in Zambia began in 2009 when then President Nancy Sclater had a pivotal conversation with the late Rtn Bill Gates Sr. His impassioned persuasion led to her visit to Zambia and sparked the consideration of investing in malaria elimination. This initial encounter laid the groundwork for our relentless pursuit of a malaria-free Zambia.
Through collaborative efforts with Rotary Clubs on the Copperbelt, we initiated several bednet distribution projects. These early endeavors paved the way for the official registration of Malaria Partners Zambia and the establishment of our office in Zambia in 2018.
Today, with over 4,000 trained Community Health Workers, our dedicated team is tirelessly working with our partners to eradicate malaria and improve healthcare access, ensuring a healthier future for all. Join us in this transformative journey as we unite to make malaria history, one community at a time.
Together, we can create a world where health thrives, free from the burden of preventable diseases.
