IVCC secures SDC funding to drive vector control innovation

IVCC is delighted to announce a new funding award of $4.44 million from the Swiss Development and Cooperation Agency (SDC) to support its mission of combating vector-borne diseases and tackling the growing threat of insecticide resistance. This four-year grant (2024 –2028) will provide core funding to strengthen IVCC’s product development portfolio and operational capacity.

“Core funding is critical to IVCC’s ability to accelerate the development of innovative tools that save lives in malaria-endemic regions,” says IVCC CEO, Justin McBeath. “By supporting the full spectrum of our work—from research and development to market access—this investment enables IVCC to address some of the most urgent challenges in vector control.”

With SDC’s partnership, IVCC continues to advance next-generation insecticides, enhancing the availability of life-saving tools and fostering collaborations that strengthen local capacity and infrastructure. Efforts to prevent, control, and eliminate malaria are vital to protecting global health and safeguarding progress toward the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. By reducing the disease burden and mitigating the risks malaria poses to health and development, IVCC and SDC contribute to a more sustainable and equitable future.

We are grateful for SDC’s continued trust and partnership, which reflects a shared commitment to improving global health and achieving sustainable progress in the fight against malaria.
