The article introduces Pf-HaploAtlas, a new online tool developed by MalariaGEN to track genetic mutations in the Plasmodium falciparum parasite—the most deadly malaria-causing species. This app allows researchers and public health professionals to explore global data on drug resistance mutations ...and genetic variation across thousands of parasite genomes. The tool is designed to improve understanding of how malaria parasites evolve and spread, and to support efforts in monitoring antimalarial drug resistance. With an intuitive interface, Pf-HaploAtlas enables users to visualize haplotype patterns, compare regional differences, and access up-to-date data that can inform control strategies and research.

The WHO Malaria Threats Map is an interactive online platform that showcases the latest global data on four critical biological threats to effective malaria control and elimination: mosquito insecticide resistance, Plasmodium falciparum hrp2/3 gene deletions, antimalarial drug resistance, and the ...spread of invasive vector species. Designed for public health professionals and researchers, the map allows users to explore and filter data regionally, track emerging resistance patterns, and view visual trends. Its purpose is to inform strategies for surveillance, guide policy-making, and support efforts to eliminate malaria, particularly by anticipating and responding to biological challenges that could undermine control programs.

The Global Malaria Programme Toolkit app brings together the content of the latest World malaria report and of the consolidated WHO Guidelines for malaria as well as operational manuals and other technical documents – in one easy-to-navigate resource.
The website provides PowerPoint presentations with general information about malaria. These can be viewed online and downloaded as PDFs.
One of the world’s leading non-profit organisations specialising in the prevention, control and treatment of malaria and other communicable diseases among vulnerable populations. The Malaria Consortium website provides comprehensive information about the organization’s work in preventing, contro...lling, and eventually eliminating malaria and other communicable diseases. It showcases the organization’s projects, research, publications, and policy work across Africa and Asia. The site highlights areas such as disease surveillance, health system strengthening, seasonal malaria chemoprevention, and integrated community case management. It also serves as a platform to share news, technical resources, impact reports, and opportunities for collaboration. The target audience includes public health professionals, donors, researchers, and policy-makers interested in global health and infectious disease control.

Malaria in children presents significant clinical challenges, with variations in presentation based on the malaria parasite involved and the child's underlying health conditions. The World Health Organization reports high incidence rates, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, and emphasizes the import...ance of effective treatment strategies. First-line treatment often involves Artemether-Lumefantrine (ALu), while severe malaria requires careful management and the use of intravenous Quinine. Management protocols emphasize early diagnosis and the monitoring of severe complications to reduce mortality.

Surveillance is a core malaria intervention. Data standards, tools and curricula materials have been developed to support countries to strengthen and monitor national routine surveillance systems and to support use of data for decision-making in all transmission settings. These standards have been d...eveloped into malaria modules in DHIS2 for countries using this platform. These tools comprise: modules for burden reduction and elimination settings; aggregate module; case-based module and modules for entomological surveillance and vector control interventions

Les vecteurs sont des insectes ou d’autres animaux qui véhiculent des maladies contagieuses par piqûre ou
contact avec leur urine, leurs excréments, leur sang, etc. De nombreuses maladies sont transmises par des
vecteurs, notamment le paludisme, la dengue, Zika, le chikungunya, la fièvre jau...ne, la fièvre de Lassa, la fièvre
de la vallée du Rift et la peste. Les vecteurs vivent et se développent parfois sur d’autres animaux hôtes,
appelés des réservoirs, avant d’atteindre les humains. Pour protéger la population des maladies, il est
important de lutter à la fois contre les vecteurs et les réservoirs. Ces deux catégories regroupent des insectes et
animaux tels que les moustiques, les tiques, les rongeurs, les puces, etc.

The malaria parasite develops both in humans and in the female Anopheles mosquitoes. The size and genetic complexity of the parasite mean that each infection presents thousands of antigens (proteins) to the human immune system.
