Sustainable Development Goals
The Sustainable Development Goals are a call to action to end poverty and inequality, protect the planet, and ensure that all people enjoy health, justice and prosperity. MMV's work to reduce the burden of malaria contributes to eight of these goals. Go to a PDF version of the infographic or scroll down for further information on each goal.
MMV develops and facilitates access to affordable and effective therapies, key to mitigating the impact of malaria on poor populations.
MMV and partners have assembled the largest existing portfolio of antimalarials, supporting target 3.3 (to end malaria and other diseases).
Malaria disproportionately affects women as patients and caregivers. MMV prioritizes new medicines specifically for use by pregnant women and girls.
MMV advances the availability of antimalarials for workers and their families, contributing to decreased absenteeism at work and school, thus fostering a brighter future.
MMV works with drug research and manufacturing partners in endemic countries to help build on local expertise and achieve global quality standards.
MMV is committed to facilitating equitable access to antimalarials for under-served populations, across all gender, age and socio-economic categories.
MMV works to defeat malaria, a disease that is expected to cause 60,000 additional deaths per year by 2050 due to climate change, according to the WHO.
