Malaria
We apply diverse interventions to help control malaria. To build effective malaria control programs in Africa and Asia, we support implementation of vector control programs, operational research, entomological and epidemiological surveillance and improved targeting for interventions, as well as environmental assessments, compliance inspections, and monitoring. RTI is the lead implementing partner for Indoor Residual Spraying supported by the President's Malaria Initiative, which is under contract to the U.S. Agency for International Development. We are active in all 15 countries receiving assistance under the President's Malaria Initiative.
We have provided similar support in the past to Eritrea. W supported the Healthy Children, Healthy Homes program, a school-based educational effort sponsored by the S.C. Johnson & Son Foundation. In Uganda, we supported research funded by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to improve usage of insecticide-treated nets.
