Malaria in Ghana
Malaria is transmitted throughout Ghana and is reported by the Ministry of Health to be responsible for more than 44 percent of outpatient visits and approximately 22 percent of deaths in children under the age of five. With the massive scale-up of malaria control measures, recent household surveys show that significant progress is being made against malaria in Ghana.

The Malaria Operational Plans (MOPs) below are detailed one-year implementation plans for PMI in Ghana. Each MOP briefly reviews the current status of malaria control and prevention policies and interventions, identifies challenges and unmet needs, and describes planned activities under PMI. These MOPs have been endorsed by the Global Malaria Coordinator and reflect collaborative discussions with national malaria control programs and partners in country.
