Opis

The FY 2017 PMI MOP for the GMS was developed with the Regional Development Mission for Asia (RDMA), and Burma and Cambodia USAID Missions during a planning visit in March 2016 by representatives from USAID, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the national malaria control programs of Burma, Thailand, and Cambodia, with the participation of other major donors and partners working on malaria in the area. The FY 2017 MOP supports regional/cross-cutting activities, such as surveillance for antimalarial drug resistance and antimalarial drug quality assurance, and malaria prevention and control activities to reduce malaria transmission in geographically targeted areas. PMI is also supporting a pilot package of elimination activities in one operational district in Cambodia for potential scale up to other areas. PMI will also consider emergency assistance, including commodity support and technical assistance for surveillance, case management, and social and behavior change communication (SBCC) in other GMS areas threatened by artemisinin resistance. The activities PMI is proposing to support with FY 2017 funding are in line with the national malaria control program strategies of the six countries and are intended to complement ongoing Global Fund malaria grants and contributions from other donors.
