Spotlight on Malaria and case study: towards equitable coverage of insecticide treated nets in Tanzania

Abstract

With partners in Tanzania, Kenya and Nigeria, where malaria is a major cause of illness and mortality, malaria is an important topic for CREHS. Much of the research focuses on scaling-up the delivery of malaria-related interventions, and its impact on the poorest and most vulnerable populations. This document contains some examples of CREHS-related research on Malaria. There is also a case-study on the National Voucher Scheme (TNVS), introduced in Tanzania to increase the coverage of mosquito nets among pregnant women and children under five.
