Flood-linked locally led intervention and outbreak warning for malaria — FLLOW-M
Published:
Resources: Project brief
This research and implementation project aims to increase outbreak preparedness to reduce excess malaria morbidity in flood-prone communities in South Sudan and improve access to essential health services.
The FLLOW-M project will enable communities and the government to quickly detect malaria outbreaks by developing a digital early warning system using climate and health facility data. This should lead to quicker responses and reduced malaria morbidity. A qualitative study will identify needs, coping strategies and community-led solutions during floods.
