Malaria Prevention & Treatment

Malaria Begins and Ends in the Community

Onwe Ujunwa, TIPTOP Malaria Officer

Community health workers are at the frontline, bringing health services that otherwise would be inaccessible in villages and rural areas. They intimately understand the communities they serve and are instrumental in improving access to—and demand for—basic health services, including malaria prevention as part of comprehensive maternal and child health services for the pregnant women, who are among the most vulnerable to malaria.
