The present report, submitted in response to General Assembly resolution 67/299, provides a review of progress in the implementation of the resolution, focusing on the adoption and scaling-up of interventions recommended by WHO in malaria-endemic countries. It provides an assessment of progress towards the 2015 global malaria targets, including Millennium Development Goal 6, targets set through the African Union and the World Health Assembly and goals set through the Global Malaria Action Plan of the Roll Back Malaria Partnership.
