To support and facilitate the elimination of malaria from the Asia Pacific by 2030, driving implementation of the APLMA Leaders’ Malaria Elimination Roadmap by: benchmarking progress against priorities; coordinating regional action and brokering policy, technical and financing solutions to regional and national challenges; and, bolstering effective country leadership to expedite the elimination of malaria at in each country by 2030.

APLMA brings together not just health officials, but also senior leaders from various sectors. This comprehensive approach allows them to identify and address bottlenecks hindering progress. By facilitating cross-border collaboration and working alongside the Asia Pacific Malaria Elimination Network (APMEN), we empower tangible elimination efforts across the region, with a particular focus on countries facing the heaviest malaria burden.
APLMA equips governments and political leaders with the knowledge they need to succeed. We provide access to regional and national data, best practices, and innovative tools, ensuring leaders have the visibility and resources required to end malaria for good.
APLMA recognizes that vulnerable communities often bear the brunt of malaria's burden. We go beyond national leadership, working directly with local health workers and community leaders. By empowering them with resources and training, we strengthen their capacity to deliver life-saving interventions and education to those most at risk.
The spectre of drug-resistant malaria is recognised as a public health threat requiring national and regional responses.
The 18 members of the East Asia Summit (EAS) unanimously agree on the goal of making the Asia-Pacific free of malaria by 2030. APLMA is tasked with creating and implementing a Roadmap for attaining this goal.
The EAS reaffirms its commitment to malaria elimination by 2030, and requests for a 5-year progress report on the progress made in the region towards 2030.

Roadmap by:
The Asia Pacific Leaders Malaria Alliance (APLMA) Secretariat was formed in 2013. The objective of the Secretariat is to support the commitments of 18 Heads of Governments and countries across Asia Pacific to achieve the collective commitment to eliminate malaria in the Asia Pacific region by 2030.
Based in Singapore, the APLMA Secretariat serves as a regional mechanism for technical advocacy, health diplomacy, and high-level convening that builds and sustains momentum towards the elimination goal. In a focused manner, APLMA is also responsive to requests for country-level support to both elevate the visibility of malaria in country and support policy change. APLMA works to marshal the technical and financial resources needed to end malaria through evidence, policy, and advocacy.
The Asia Pacific Leaders Malaria Alliance (APLMA) and Asia Pacific Malaria Elimination Network (APMEN) are partners working towards the elimination of malaria in the Asia Pacific by 2030.
With a joint secretariat headquartered in the regional hub of Singapore to facilitate cross-border collaboration, APLMA and APMEN support malaria elimination focused outcomes across Asia Pacific’s most vulnerable communities, where the need for elimination equity is greatest, by mobilizing innovations and tailored solutions across stakeholders.
APMEN works through government partnerships to generate local evidence while building capacity. It delivers technical malaria expertise, to identify and ratify evidence-based practices capable of eliminating disease, as well as to facilitate technical exchange across stakeholders, with a primary focus on improving disease surveillance and response, vector control and Vivax.
On the other hand, APLMA translates evidence for advocacy for policy change at the highest levels of government and fosters regional leadership collaboration. As well as supporting governments and political leaders, APLMA, in collaboration with APMEN, works to empower tangible elimination progress across the region with a heavy focus on high malaria burden countries.
