Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

In 2016, the Chinese Government pledged to contribute USD $200 million to the United Nations over a ten year period. The United Nations Peace and Development Trust Fund (UNPDF) was established to channel these earmarked funds to specific projects in coordination with the UN. The UNPDF is divided into two sub-funds: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Sub-Fund and The Secretary-General's Peace and Security Sub-Fund. Approved in 2020 and implemented between January 2021 and January 2025, USD $1,697,876 was allocated from the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Sub-Fund to enhance Malaria surveillance systems in the African countries of Burkina Faso, Senegal, Tanzania, and Zambia. The World Health Organization (WHO) implemented the project, along with collaborating partners UNICEF, UNDP, and the World Bank. The project has implemented innovative surveillance and response for malaria building and has reduced the malaria burden in high burden areas.
