Reports of community mobilisation on prevention and treatment of malaria

QUESTION:

Do you have any reports on community mobilisation on malaria prevention?

ANSWER:

There are a lot of organisations that utilise community involvement and mobilisation in their strategies to prevent and control malaria. One example of such an organisation is UNICEF; they work closely with governments to develop initiatives that allow for scaling up of community and health facility integrated packages for the control of malaria. Such packages might include distribution of bednets alongside messages about education to prevent malaria, plus diagnosis and treatment of infections. More information can be found on the UNICEF website.
