Guidance on Insecticide Treated Nets (ITN) proitization

In the context of limited resources, national malaria programmes may need to make prioritization decisions across all WHO-recommended interventions. This guidance document has been developed to support national malaria programmes on prioritization decisions specifically for insecticide-treated net (ITN) deployment scope and product choice, to be used when programmes do not have sufficient budget to deploy the most effective ITNs to all populations at risk. This guidance does not address distribution channel decisions or other issues such as frequency of ITN distribution. Nor does it cover every choice that a national malaria programme may need to make regarding ITNs, but rather is intended as a basis to start discussion and decision-making.
