Frontline community health workers are essential to ending malaria and their voices deserve to be heard. 🌍 Sharing this important report from @endmalaria and @DigitalScholarX capturing their experiences and insights. #EndMalaria #GlobalHealth 👇
What surprised us when we listened to the experiences of more than 1,000 health workers fighting malaria?
Their contributions became Malaria: Turning the Tide, the first peer-generated evidence base on malaria aligned with WHO normative guidance.
This post is a short selection of the contributions that surprised us most: working cases from named districts and named countries that read like natural experiments in malaria control.
See the first comment for links to the full report and articles.

Thanks to the team for sharing updates about our fixed dose co-formulation which targets ALL STH species, especially those with suboptimal response to current treatment.
The road to 2030 needs new tools. We're building them.

@YetundeSoneye's dedication to vulnerable populations (women, children, and people living with disabilities) is driving real change in Ogun State.
Her leadership is making an impact on NTD elimination and public health across the region.

Health is a right, not a privilege. We heard this from Bridges' new fellow, Dr Victoria Gamba, about the FGS minimum service package in Kenya. The new WHO AFRO Technical Advisory Group and FIG agree, the goal is simple: ensure the patient journey ends in diagnosis and treatment.

On #WorldNTDDay, we shine a light on female genital schistosomiasis (FGS). FGS is caused by a parasitic infection. It's easily treated and preventable but often unrecognised & misdiagnosed, and many women receive the wrong treatment. Learn more🔗bit.ly/FIG-schisto #BeatNTDs

We're passionate about bridging gaps in FGS care to improve the lives of affected women and girls. We closed 2025 by aligning with partners on FGS priorities & are prepared for a pivotal 2026!
