Impact of IPTsc on Malaria Prevalence: A Before-and-After Comparison in Kibondo and Nyang’hwale District Councils in Tanzania
Join us for an engaging session in the ALAMIME Alumni Webinar Series examining the impact of Intermittent Preventive Treatment in school-aged children (IPTsc) on malaria prevalence in Kibondo and Nyang’hwale District Councils, Tanzania. This webinar will present findings from a before-and-after assessment, highlighting the effectiveness of IPTsc as a complementary malaria control strategy in moderate- to high-transmission settings.
The session will explore implementation approaches, epidemiological outcomes, operational lessons, and the role of school-based platforms in expanding malaria prevention coverage. Participants will gain insights into how targeted preventive strategies can reduce parasite prevalence, strengthen surveillance data, and inform policy decisions for scaling up malaria interventions.
