USAID/BASICS held a presentation entitled Malaria: Scaling up Home-based Management for Children on Wednesday, September 2. It was the second-to-last in a series of events in 2009 organized by USAID/BASICS to share innovative strategies and lessons learned during 15 years of project implementation.
Malaria: Scaling up Home-based Management for Children was presented by Ciro Franco and Megan Shepherd-Banigan. Among other things, the presentation explored the feasibility of using Rapid Diagnostic Tests at the community level, mechanisms for scaling up malaria interventions, considerations when implementing integrated programs versus stand-alone programs, and recommendations for meeting today's challenges in the prevention and treatment of malaria.
