The future of malaria vaccines: Innovation, access, and impact

With the rollout of the world’s first malaria vaccine, now underway in several African countries, we are entering a new era in the fight against malaria. Following pilot implementations in Ghana, Kenya, and Malawi, broader introductions are now taking shape, marking a critical milestone in malaria prevention efforts.

This webinar will explore what comes next for malaria vaccine development and access. Experts will discuss the future pipeline of malaria vaccines, the challenges and opportunities in integrating vaccines into immunization programs, and the complexities of forecasting and manufacturing supply to meet demand. Join us for a dynamic discussion on how these factors shape equitable access and the global effort to reduce malaria’s burden.
