​As the grand finale of EA Switzerland’s Topic Month on Malaria, we’re thrilled to welcome Rob Mather, founder of the Against Malaria Foundation (AMF) — one of the most consistently top-rated and cost-effective charities in the world for the past 17 years.

​What is AMF?
AMF funds and distributes long-lasting insecticidal nets, one of the most effective ways to prevent malaria across entire populations. The scale is staggering:

• ​Distributes millions of nets at a time – anywhere from 2 to 20 million – with each net protecting 2 people.

• ​One of the largest funders of nets globally.

• ​Raised US $765 million since its founding in 2004, with US $500 million in just the last 5 years.

• ​Operates with a 14-person team, no offices, and central costs under 1%.

• ​Never spent a cent on advertising or fundraising.

​Known for its impact, efficiency, and radical transparency, AMF has a unique operating model unlike almost any other charity.

​What to expect:
Rob will give a behind-the-scenes look at how AMF works, why its approach is so effective, and share stories from the field. Then it’s over to you — 40–45 minutes of Q&A. You can ask anything:

• ​How can a tiny team achieve this scale?

• ​What’s Rob’s famous “20-minute rule” for getting things done?

• ​Or your own burning questions about tackling malaria at the global level.
