Nothing But Nets is a project of the United Nations Foundation dedicated fighting malaria, a deadly, yet preventable disease.
Every two minutes, a child dies from malaria, a disease caused by a single mosquito bite. Malaria is preventable and treatable with a life-saving, insecticide-treated bed net and other malaria prevention tools and treatment. Half of the world’s population is at risk of contracting malaria, and refugees, pregnant women, and children are most vulnerable to this disease.
Bed nets are a simple, cost-effective solution to keep families safe from malaria-carrying mosquitoes. Combined with household spraying, malaria testing and treatment, and vaccines in development, we are making progress in the fight to end malaria for good.
