REMaRAG

Rotarians Eliminating Malaria a Rotarian Action Group was one of the first Action Groups, if not the first, to be recognised by The Board of Rotary International in November 2005. It came about after many suggestions from senior Rotary leaders throughout the world and my personal experience of working in African countries and as a Volunteer with the Rotaract Overseas Projects where we were always having to face at first hand the often fatal consequences of workers and African friends contracting Malaria.

REMaRAG purpose:

To promote the malaria control efforts of Rotarians and the work of Rotarians – alone and with others, including organisations, governments, NGO’s, health agencies and the public at large – towards the common goal of total control and possible elimination of Malaria.

REMaRAG coordinates all the excellent work being carried out by dedicated Rotarians & The Family of Rotary to form a global picture of what is happening - and where - in the fight against Malaria. 

REMaRAG does not intended to take over or organise any group of individuals therefore groups such as Rotarians Eliminating Malaria in Tanzania (REMIT), Rotarians Against Malaria (RAM), Roll Back Malaria (RBM) have nothing to fear when informing REMaRAG of their progress, strategy and concerns against Malaria. 

Country representatives will act as conduits in the process of keeping succinct information on our website and where and how to put best practise before as many people as possible.

Rotarians have much to be proud of in the fight against this deadly menace, let us not duplicate efforts nor reinvent the wheel!  Together REMaRAG is there to be of help, give guidance but more importantly to tell Rotarians and THE WORLD what Rotarians are doing.
