RESEARCH, MONITORING AND EVALUATION 

Our research has direct relevance and linkage to implementation and serves to provide evidence which will strengthen the quality of programme activities and also contribute to the wider understanding.

We test new technologies, particularly in the field of vector control. We support the maintenance of a sentinel surveillance system to monitor the efficacy of anti-malarial drugs and provide evidence to support the policy change processes.

We carry out a range of operational research studies with partners. We also carry out national baseline and indicator surveys, and national external reviews of malaria control. We frequently conduct surveys of knowledge, perceptions and behaviour related to use of malaria preventive commodities in the populations that we serve. We also engage in policy analysis and development at global and regional level, based on evidence from country programmes.
