Every year, malaria kills an estimated 627,000 people and in Africa, a child dies every minute from the disease.
World Malaria Day, held on 25 April, offers the opportunity for
efforts to be showcased on how to further scale up interventions.
The Malaria Control in Schools toolkit gives practical information and technical and policy advice to enable education professionals to develop effective programmes on malaria prevention and control for school-age children within malaria endemic countries.
