The World Malaria Day is fast approaching and preparations for this exceptional advocacy opportunity are well underway around the world. To help galvanize action and showcase the work of the RMB Partners, the RBM Secretariat has launched today a dedicated website for the first World Malaria Day (WMD) that the Partnership will commemorate together. The theme for World Malaria Day is "Malaria - a disease without borders." This theme emphasizes the need for global collaboration in the fight against malaria, including the need for cross-border strategies, well-documented good practice and coordinated action at all levels - international, regional, national and local. In the run-up to World Malaria Day, the WMD website will be filling up with informative and engaging content that shows the global audience that the Partnership is strong and capable of delivering results.
