Internationally agreed targets and goalsfor malaria control
The year 2010 was an important milestone on the way to
achievement of internationally agreed goals and targets for
malaria control. In the light of progress made by 2010, targets for
the Global Malaria Action Plan (GMAP) of the Roll Back Malaria
Partnership were updated in June 2011.

Financing malaria control
The funds committed to malaria control from international
sources are expected to peak in 2011 at US$ 2 billion and remain
substantially lower than the resources required to achieve global
targets, estimated at > US$ 5 billion for the years 20102015.
