President's Malaria Initiative (PMI) End Use Verification Data

This data asset contains facility-­based data on malaria stock status, commodity management, and case management. The President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI) is a U.S. Government initiative designed to reduce malaria deaths and illnesses in target countries, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, with a long-term vision of a world without malaria. Enacted in 2005, the current strategy sets out to meet the following goals: (1) reduce malaria mortality by one-third from 2015 levels in PMI-supported countries, achieving greater than 80% reduction from PMI’s original 2000 levels; (2) reduce malaria morbidity in PMI-supported countries by 40% from 2015 levels; and (3) assist at least five PMI-supported countries to meet the WHO criteria for national or sub-national pre-elimination. The strategy is built around five focus areas to achieve these goals: (1) Achieving and sustaining scale of proven interventions; (2) adapting to changing epidemiology and incorporating new tools; (3) improving countries’ capacity to collect and use information; (4) mitigating risk against the current malaria control gains; and (5) building capacity and health systems. The data contains information about malaria case management, commodity management for the following countries: Burkina Faso, Ghana, Liberia, Malawi, Mozambique, Nigeria, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
