Malaria Consortium (MC) is one of the world’s leading non-profit organizations dedicated to the prevention, control, and treatment of malaria and other communicable diseases in Africa and Southeast Asia. Malaria Consortium works with governments, communities, academic institutions, non-governmental organizations, and international partners to support evidence-based programme implementation, operational research, health systems strengthening, monitoring and evaluation, and strategic planning for improved health outcomes.
Nigeria bears approximately 27% of the global malaria burden and accounts for nearly 31% of global malaria deaths, making it the highest malaria burden country globally according to the World Malaria Report. Malaria remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among children under five years of age and pregnant women in Nigeria. The 2021 Nigeria Malaria Indicator Survey (NMIS) reported malaria prevalence among children aged 6–59 months at 22%, although prevalence remains significantly higher in many northern states due to favourable climatic conditions for mosquito breeding, prolonged rainy seasons, and persistent gaps in access to preventive and curative malaria services.
