answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/09/2017 answer text <p>The world has made remarkable recent progress in tackling malaria, with malaria deaths falling by 62% between 2000 and 2015. DFID is a leading supporter of the effort to meet the World Health Organisation (WHO) 2020 targets, including a 40% reduction in malaria cases and deaths. We are the second largest donor, contributing 16% of the global spend on malaria control and elimination, with the rest coming from other donors, governments of endemic countries, and the private sector. Funding assessments are conducted by WHO. The estimated global spend on malaria control and elimination in 2015 was US$ 2.9 billion; and the estimated need to meet the targets is US$ 6.4 billion per year by 2020.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 05/09/2017 11:21:48 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
