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.

Seasonal climate patterns and their impact on mosquito net use in Nigeria: Evidence from repeated surveys

Seasonal patterns of temperature and rainfall affect the use of insecticide-treated nets to prevent malaria among households who already own a net. Perceived heat and an absence of mosquitoes were among the factors determining net use, according to the results of household surveys carried out throughout the year in Ondo state, Nigeria.

Space-time sensitive modelling of subclinical malaria prevalence at the village level in low burden areas of Myanmar using random forest models

In low-burden areas, village-level socio-demographic, climatic and environmental factors are not sufficient to reliably predict subclinical malaria rates. Incorporating temporal predictors in areas with higher malaria endemicity will likely improve model performance.
