The Molecular Hub had visitors from the Vanuatu Ministry of Health visit to explore cross-learning and collaboration opportunities to strengthen capacity for vector-borne disease surveillance. We're excited to be exploring new partnerships with our Melanesian neighbors.

STRIVE Program Director, Prof Leanne Robinson, moderated a panel discussion at the 8th Asia Pacific Leaders' Summit on Malaria Elimination last week in PNG. It was a great opportunity to connect with Malaria Programs across the Asia-Pacific and share lessons learned.
