Making smarter vector control a reality

Making smarter vector control a reality

Interventions that reduce mosquito populations and prevent bites are an essential part of successful malaria control and elimination strategies, but challenges like growing insecticide resistance and climate change require new tools. As countries introduce next-generation mosquito nets and researchers explore novel approaches like genetically modified mosquitoes, what does it really take to deliver effective vector control? Drawing on experiences from leading experts, this session explores the successful approaches and lessons learned from rolling out new vector control innovations in the communities hit hardest by malaria. SPEAKERS - Dr. Christen Fornadel, Senior Technical Coordinator, Innovative Vector Control Consortium - Dr. Alekos Simoni, Technical Support Specialist, Target Malaria - Dr. Charles Wondji, Executive Director, Centre for Research in Infectious Diseases - Dr. Joseph Wagman, Malaria and Neglected Tropical Diseases Program Advisor, PATH This event was supported by an unrestricted educational grant from GSK Global Health.
