Vision
To support existing national collaborative partnerships and promote new partnerships in which NGOs actively engage in national level policy formation and innovative programming to scale up community-based malaria prevention and control.
2009 Highlights
In 2009, the Malaria Working Group organized a series of technical updates through Elluminates and the CORE Group Fall and Spring Meetings to increase member and partner knowledge of community-based malaria programming advances, global directions and research. Topics included HIV/AIDS and malaria integration issues; quality assurance and supportive supervision in community case management; a collaborative approach to community-based prevention in Benin; and a review of insecticide-treated net use in sub-Saharan Africa. Furthermore, Malaria Working Group Members helped to revise the 2009 Malaria Technical Reference Materials and other key policy and advocacy documents. Read More....
