The Greater Mekong Subregion Elimination of Malaria through Surveillance (GEMS/GEMS+) project, with funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, began as an effort to improve the quality of malaria care in the private sector and ensure that data from private providers was available in the national surveillance system. As this was gradually achieved in the project’s first phase, in its final three years, the focus shifted to integrating private sector data and engagement into the national health system to ensure sustainability. The project ran from 2016 – 2020 in Cambodia and from 2016 – 2022 in Lao PDR, Myanmar, and Vietnam.
