iCCM: Saving Time Saves Lives

Malaria Consortium has been supporting the training of nearly 7,000 Village Health Team Members in nine districts of Uganda in integrated community case management.

This happens at community level, saving precious time for those who would need to travel far to reach the nearest health centre.
