Abstract
The need for operational research and capacity-building in support of the Global Technical Strategy for Malaria 2016-2030.
Highlights
The Global Technical Strategy for Malaria 2016–2030 was adopted by the 68th World Health Assembly in May 2015
The Global Technical Strategy consists of three main pillars, underpinned by two supporting elements (Fig. 1)
It would seem that operational research, though recognized as critically important to the success of global strategies for malaria control and elimination, is not so commonly undertaken or at least not so commonly published
Summary
The Global Technical Strategy for Malaria 2016–2030 was adopted by the 68th World Health Assembly in May 2015. The first of the supporting elements, harnessing innovation and expanding research, is recognized as critical in the global control and elimination of other diseases, such as tuberculosis [2]. The WHO Global Malaria Programme (GMP) has more recently published the report of a multi-partner meeting that discussed operational challenges for malaria elimination, identified priority operational research questions and recommended ways forward [4].
