Regional Consultation on the Global Technical Strategy for Malaria

Objectives:
The two-day consultation (10-11 June 2014) aimed to provide detailed feedback and recommendations on the draft GTS for malaria by engaging country representatives and external experts.

Background:
Nine out of ten mailing-list countries (Cambodia, China, etc.) attended to share national perspectives and priorities for malaria elimination.

Agenda Highlights:

1. Setting the Scene: Introduced the GTS development process, global/regional challenges, and long-term eradication vision.
2. Core Concepts: Discussed vision, goals (reducing mortality/cases by 75% by 2025) and five strategic directions.
3. Strategic Directions:
   • Conducted structured discussions on surveillance, vector control, diagnostics/treatment, innovation, and health systems strengthening.
4. Feedback: Provided recommendations for refining definitions, goals, global consistency with region-specific challenges.

Key Recommendations:

• Overarching: Aim to broaden the GTS beyond Africa-focused corridors to support universal applicability.
• Challenges: Highlight regional-specific issues like funding cuts, migratory populations, and drug resistance.
• Core Values/Guiding Principles: Redefine and add principles like community engagement.
• Goals: Revise ambitious global targets to account for regional variability.
• Pathway: Reinforce implementation guidance and classification criteria for malaria elimination phases.
• Operational Tools: Integrate monitoring, financing, and capacity-building guidance within strategic directions.

Conclusions:
Collaborative dialogue reaffirmed commitment to malaria elimination via revised strategic pathways, emphasizing country-specific adaptations to operationalize the GTS.
