PMI’S PROGRAM IN ZIMBABWE
The U.S. President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI) provides vital financial and technical assistance that enables the Government of Zimbabwe to deploy lifesaving interventions proven to fight malaria.
PMI is a critical funding source for insecticide-treated nets, malaria diagnosis and treatment, and more. PMI investments also support stronger, more-resilient health systems. For example, PMI helps train health workers, strengthen supply chains, improve data monitoring, and reinforce health policies.
PMI Zimbabwe’s fiscal year 2023 budget was $15 million. PMI investments support and build on those made by the Government of Zimbabwe, in coordination with other stakeholders. PMI investments are detailed in the Malaria Operational Plan for Zimbabwe,** which was developed in consultation with the National Malaria Control Program, other donors, and technical organizations. Planned PMI activities reflect national and PMI strategies, draw on best-available data, and align with the country context and health system.
