Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
My thanks to the witnesses for their very interesting presentations.
Before I ask my questions, I must tell you that I lived in Senegal for three years. While there, I saw the damage that malaria can do to a society at all levels. There are also economic and social repercussions, in education, as an example. The problem has broad and significant repercussions.
Mr. Verhoosel, your organization brings together about 500 partners. I personally believe that there can be no single approach when it comes to dealing with global epidemics of this kind. Can you explain a little more how the 500 partners operate and why the partnership is important?
