Good morning, everyone. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), this is our briefing on global action against malaria. We'll get started.
I want to welcome all of our guests here today. We have with us the Roll Back Malaria Partnership. Joining us is Mr. Verhoosel, who is a representative to the United Nations in New York and head of external relations. Welcome, sir. We'll be hearing from you first, after I introduce everybody.
Also representing the Roll Back Malaria Partnership is a senator from the Cameroon Senate, Senator Ngayap. Welcome. We're glad to have you here today as well.
Next to him, from the Medicines for Malaria Venture, we have Andrea Lucard, who is the executive vice-president. Welcome. We're glad to have you here today.
We have quite an international panel today, with someone from Geneva, someone from Cameroon, and someone from the United Nations in New York. We're looking forward to hearing from all of you.
Mr. Verhoosel, we're going to start with you, sir. We will give you the floor for seven minutes. We'll move through the testimony from all of our witnesses, and then we'll spend the next hour asking questions and clarifying anything the members may want clarified.
I'm going to turn it over to you, sir. We're glad to have you here. The floor is yours.
