Guinea-Bissau
The Republic of Guinea-Bissau is a member state of the African Leaders Malaria Alliance. We support Guinea-Bissau in the implementation of the country’s scorecard tools and End Malaria Council. We are also supporting the establishment of an End Malaria Council.

Scorecards
Scorecard management tools are country-owned tools that provide a snapshot of the country’s national and subnational health performance. The colour-coded scorecard tool helps track performance of priority indicators, identify bottlenecks or gaps, increase accountability, and enhance decision making to drive action.
We support Guinea-Bissau with 3 scorecard tools:
- malaria scorecard tool
- reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health (RMNCAH) scorecard tool
- neglected tropical diseases scorecard tool
Malaria scorecard tool
Guinea-Bissau’s malaria scorecard tool was developed in 2022 by the Ministry of Public Health, with support from ALMA.
RMNCAH scorecard tool
Guinea-Bissau’s RMNCAH scorecard tool was developed in 2022 by the Ministry of Public Health, with support from ALMA.
Neglected tropical diseases scorecard tool

End Malaria Council
The Guinea-Bissau End Malaria Council launched in May 2023. We continue to support Guinea-Bissau with the ongoing operations of the End Malaria Council.
National End Malaria Councils are public-private partnerships established to help accelerate progress against malaria. The council is a country-led and owned initiative that brings together senior-level, multi-sectoral stakeholders. It is focused on driving action and accountability, resource mobilisation and advocacy in the fight against malaria.
