History
Malaria No More was established in December 2006 by business leaders looking to apply private sector expertise and entrepreneurial methods to tackling malaria.[citation needed] In 2008, it was one of six charities supported by the TV show American Idol, as part of its "Idol Gives Back" campaign.[2]
Since Malaria No More's inception - at the White House event that launched the U.S. President's Malaria Initiative in 2006 - Malaria No More has worked to mobilize political commitment, funding and innovation, with the goal of "ending malaria within our generation."[3]
In June 2024, the World Economic Forum noted that The Malaria 'Dividend' report by Malaria No More UK found that reducing malaria by 90% by 2030 could "increase Africa’s GDP by $126.9 billion – or $16 billion per year".[4]
