The two-day event was attended by 63 invited participants, including researchers from academia, representatives of product development partnerships and pharmaceutical industry, policy makers, funding agencies and other like-minded organisations. The recommendations from the stakeholder meeting on malaria will contribute towards the EDCTP strategic and operational business plan.
