About the World Mosquito Program
Redefining possible
The World Mosquito Program (WMP) is a global not-for-profit organization owned by Monash University (Australia), dedicated to protecting communities from mosquito-borne diseases, including dengue, Zika, yellow fever, and chikungunya. Our approach uses naturally occurring Wolbachia bacteria to reduce mosquitoes' ability to transmit viruses — a safe, self-sustaining, non-GMO, and cost effective solution. Our work has achieved remarkable results: 77% reduction in dengue incidence in randomized controlled trials in Indonesia and successful implementation in 14 countries, protecting 14+ million people globally. WMP is now entering a phase of rapid growth, scaling national programs and preparing to expand into new regions. We are a dynamic organization tackling urgent public health challenges. At WMP, you'll join smart, passionate people in a collaborative environment where expertise, teamwork and execution drive impact. Learn more:
