Health centre heads in Ethiopia share how they use the malaria surveillance dashboard to facilitate outbreak detection and response at the community level.
The three-year project Strengthening Community-based Malaria Prevention and Surveillance Interventions was led by Malaria Consortium with funding from the James Percy Foundation. It has focused on strengthening the current capacity of Ethiopia’s health system to detect and respond to malaria outbreaks through improved malaria surveillance and use of data for decision-making.
