About Malaria Partners Zambia – MPZ
In 2018, Rotarian Malaria Partners Zambia (RMPZ) was formed. This begun the Copperbelt Zambia malaria elimination project. Newly hired RMPZ Executive Director, Martha Lungu, sought guidance from the Copperbelt Provincial Health Office on which districts to focus. In cooperation with the Government of Zambia, non-governmental organizations including PATH/MACEPA, World Vision, Malaria Partners International and Rotary Clubs committed to eradicating malaria. Rotary’s role in the project is to generate funding to train the 3,500 Community Health Workers needed to complement the Government’s elimination efforts in the Copperbelt over the period 2018-2021. Currently, Rotarian Malaria Partners Zambia (RMPZ) is pursuing a Copperbelt Zambia malaria elimination project committed to eradicating malaria.
