Malaria: Countries
USAID supports malaria control and prevention programs on three continents – Africa, Asia, and South America. It has programs in 28 countries, 17 of which are in Africa. USAID’s Mekong Regional Initiative covers Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam, and its Amazon Malaria Initiative covers Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela. USAID also has a malaria program in the Philippines.
On December 14, 2006, at the White House Summit on Malaria, former President Bush announced eight additional target countries under the President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI) – Ghana, Madagascar, Mali, Zambia, Kenya, Liberia, Ethiopia, and Benin. Links to all 15 target country profiles are below (each PMI target country is identified in bold).
