Prevention - NGO advocacy

US based charity ‘Africa Fighting Malaria‘ (AFM) has created an interactive map of Africa to indicate which countries are conducting ‘Indoor Residual Spraying’ (IRS) along with the main funders.

Project Director, Richard Tren, commented that: “World Malaria Day 2008 focuses on malaria across borders – and some of the best cross-border malaria control programs rely heavily on IRS.”

The AFM website also has some interesting sources of further information for those keen to learn more:
