GFATM RND17 (360G-CR-2897477)
This funding will be used by the Global Fund for the procurement of malaria rapid diagnostic tests, long-lasting insecticide-treated mosquito nets and TB treatment courses – specifically this application will support provision of diagnostic tests and nets in Liberia, diagnostic tests in Malawi, nets in Uganda, and TB treatment in Kenya.Mosquito nets and rapid diagnostic tests are being provided to protect families from mosquitos carrying the disease, and to ensure prompt and accurate diagnosis of malaria so lifesaving treatment can be started quickly. Both interventions are WHO recommended lifesaving approaches to malaria control. TB treatment courses are being provided to ensure effective treatment of TB cases and minimise the spread of the disease to new patients.In addition, half of the grant will be spent on training community health workers to improve case detection and treatment of malaria and TB in communities, and train people on the correct use of nets. This application includes match funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
