PMI Impact Malaria
Project
Overview
PMI Impact Malaria was the U.S. President’s Malaria Initiative’s (PMI) flagship global malaria service delivery project from February 2018-May 2024, funded and technically assisted by PMI and led PSI in partnership with Jhpiego, MCD Global Health, and the Malaria Elimination Institute (MEI) at the University of California San Francisco. PMI Impact Malaria supported 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.
We supported national malaria programs to advance malaria service delivery by working to:
Close the gaps in malaria diagnosis and treatment to get the right medicine, with the correct diagnosis, to patients in need, in the timeliest manner.
Unlock the potential of drug-based malaria prevention approaches by helping countries introduce, implement, and scale-up proven interventions.
Improve malaria health systems and data for decision-making through developing and disseminating technical learning and evidence.
PMI Impact Malaria accomplished its mandate by strengthening the capacity of National Malaria Programs, regional and district health authorities, health facility staff, and community health workers to deliver these services, manage quality improvement programs, and collect and use high-quality data to monitor and refine those programs.

Six Years of Impact
More than 84 million
doses of prevention medicine provided to children through seasonal malaria chemoprevention campaigns.
11,959 OTSS Visits
to 4,700 health facilities and 4,663 health workers trained with the most up-to-date global and national guidelines
18,198 CHWs
recruited and trained in integrated community case management service interventions
1,761,988 children
receiving fever care by trained CHWS.
7 countries
recorded increased rates of medicine uptake to prevent malaria in pregnancy
14 therapeutic efficacy studies
conducted at 40 study sites across 10 countries.
18 e-learning modules developed
on quality improvement, case management, malaria in pregnancy and to improve access to health worker trainings during the COVID-19 pandemic
How we
worked
PMI Impact Malaria supported national malaria programs in partner countries to strengthen the quality of and access to malaria case management and prevention of malaria in pregnancy, improve the quality of and access to malaria drug-based approaches, and provide global technical leadership and support for operational research. PMI’s Outreach, Training, and Supportive Supervision (OTSS) quality improvement model underpinned our support for national capacity strengthening at the health facility and individual health provider levels. We supported activities and interventions in eight focus areas:
three technical areas
1
Malaria in pregnancy
2
Diagnosis and treatment
3
Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention
five Cross-Cutting Areas
1
Social behavior change communication
2
Health systems strengthening
3
Monitoring and evaluation
4
Operational research
5
Elimination
