Abstract:
Abstract: As the scale and volume of China-African cooperation continue to expand, the opportunities inherent in China-African public health cooperation are also on the rise. Malaria prevention and control is one of the primary domains of China-African public health cooperation. Especially after China's elimination of malaria, incorporating China's experience into the local context to accelerate the control and elimination of malaria in Africa, is a critical scientific problem. This article retrospectively analyses the historical China-African cooperative projects on malaria prevention and control such as the artemisinin compound project for rapid clearance of malaria, the China-UK-Tanzania pilot project, and the institution-based network of China-Africa cooperation on malaria elimination (INCAM), cooperation with the World Health Organization, and the contribution of domestic non-governmental organizations. The article also examines the challenges faced in the China-African cooperation for controlling and eliminating malaria and envisions future cooperation directions.
