    • The role of global partnerships, including the Global Fund, in distributing resources efficiently.

    • How Uganda’s malaria response is supported by international funding for the dissemination of key public health interventions.

    • The importance of sustained funding for malaria research, with US agencies like NIH, CDC, and PMI contributing to vaccine development and disease surveillance.

    Featuring: Margaret Reilly McDonnell (United to Beat Malaria), Dr David Walton (formerly PMI), Dr Jimmy Opigo (Uganda National Malaria Control Program), Jamie Bay Nishi (ASTMH) and Ed Royce (former House Foreign Affairs Committee (HFAC) Chairman).
