Tackling Malaria

EDM number 30 in 2008-09, proposed by Bob Spink on 03/12/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Diseases and International development.

That this House notes that malaria still afflicts 40 per cent. of the world's population; calls on governments of malaria-endemic countries and international public and private organisations to work together to fight malaria worldwide and to raise awareness of malaria; further notes that, although preventable and curable, malaria continues to infect more than 500 million people each year, killing over one million; further notes that although the burden of malaria is heaviest in sub-Saharan Africa, it also afflicts Asia, Latin America, the Middle East and parts of Europe; further notes that it will only be defeated through collaboration and co-ordinated action of all relevant actors on local, national, regional and international levels; and therefore calls on the Government to review its efforts to collaborate with its international partners in tackling malaria.

This motion has been signed by a total of 48 MPs, 3 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
