Malaria incidence in Latin America and the Caribbean has decreased by 65% from 2001 to 2013, which has resulted in new challenges for maintaining the availability
of quality antimalarials and other key interventions. The Amazon Malaria Initiative (AMI) is a regional partnership supported by USAID that assists countries to
address these challenges by incorporating selected best practices for malaria prevention and control. AMI is affiliated with the Amazon Network for Antimalarial
Drug Resistance Surveillance (RAVREDA), which is the regional network of national malaria control programs that monitor antimalarial efficacy.
