VOX Myanmar: A mother on how iCCM training helped save her daughter
Malaria Consortium worked with Myanmar's National Malaria Control Programme, Child Health and Nutrition Divisions and Kalay, Pinlebu and Banmauk townships to introduce integrated community case management (iCCM) through the country's volunteer network. This VOX Voices of Experience interview is with a mother and farmer from a remote village in Kalay who talks about how the village malaria volunteer was able to diagnose and treat her sick daughter quickly, after they had received new iCCM training in diagnosing and treating diarrhoea and pneumonia as well as malaria.
