About this talk
The Against Malaria Foundation (AMF) has been described as ‘the world’s most cost-effective, impactful charity.’ As a charity, it is very different from others in many ways, due to its unswerving focus on preventing deaths and illness from malaria. This guest lecture will cover what AMF does, how it is done, and the ways in which the motivation (addressing malaria) can be translated into maximal impact. It will address ways in which AMF strives to make the most effective use of every donation, with a particular focus on the behavioural science aspects of their work. This lecture is part of the Behavioural Science and Complex Interventions module on the MSc in Translational Health Sciences, and discussion will focus on challenges inherent in the AMF model and themes relevant to Behavioural Science.
