Rationale and Abstract

Community case management (CCM) is a vital intervention for improving access to malaria treatment, especially for rural communities with low access to traditional health facilities. This project aims to establish benchmarked baselines for CCM needs across sub-Sarahan Africa, with a focus on accessing treatment for malaria. 

Study Design

This study will use open source data from World Pop, Google Earth Engine, and Malaria Atlas Project, as well as CHW reporting data in DHIS2.
