    When Knowledge Is Not Enough: Applying a Behavioral Design Approach to Improve Fever Case Management in Nigeria
    Faraz Haqqi, Angela Acosta, Sriram Sridharan, Emily Zimmerman, Temitope Ogunbi, Eno’bong Idiong, Uwem Inyang, Foyeke Oyedokun-Adebagbo, Jose Tchofa, Nene Diallo, Emma Mtiro, Chukwu Okoronkwo and Bolatito Aiyenigba

    Analyzing fever case management through a behavioral lens can lead programs to solutions that differ from conventional approaches in terms of type and deployment method.

    End Malaria Faster: Taking Lifesaving Tools Beyond “Access” to “Reach” All People in Need
    Courtney Emerson, Jed Meline, Anne Linn, Julie Wallace, Bryan K. Kapella, Meera Venkatesan and Richard Steketee
    Global Health: Science and Practice April 2022, 10(2):e2200118; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-22-00118

    To “reach the unreached” with preventive and curative malaria services, we must know which individuals and communities remain unreached and then bring tailored services from the clinic to the community and home.

    Extending Delivery of Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention to Children Aged 5–10 Years in Chad: A Mixed-Methods Study
    Azoukalné Moukénet, Laura Donovan, Beakgoubé Honoré, Kevin Baker, Helen Smith, Sol Richardson and Charlotte Ward
    Global Health: Science and Practice February 2022, 10(1):e2100161; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00161

    We sought to understand perceptions of the feasibility and acceptability of extending seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) to children aged 5–10 years and explore reasons why SMC is administered to children aged 5–10 years in the current program.

    Navigating the COVID-19 Crisis to Sustain Community-Based Malaria Interventions in Cambodia
    Mitra Feldman, Lieven Vernaeve, James Tibenderana, Leo Braack, Mark Debackere, Htin Kyaw Thu, Prudence Hamade and Koung Lo
    Global Health: Science and Practice June 2021, 9(2):344-354; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00528

    Despite the impacts of an unforeseen concomitant disaster such as COVID-19, malaria elimination efforts were able to continue because of successful efforts to build trust, relevance, and connection with communities to promote community health malaria workers' acceptance. With lessons learned from the COVID-19 response, community health workers can be repurposed for broader public health interventions in preparation for future disease outbreaks.

    Evaluating Vertical Malaria Community Health Worker Programs as Malaria Declines: Learning From Program Evaluations in Honduras and Lao PDR
    Harriet G. Napier, Madeline Baird, Evelyn Wong, Eliza Walwyn-Jones, Manuel Espinoza Garcia, Lizeth Cartagena, Nontokozo Mngadi, Viengxay Vanisaveth, Viengphone Sengsavath, Phoutnalong Vilay, Kenesay Thongpiou, Theodoor Visser and Justin M. Cohen
    Global Health: Science and Practice March 2021, 9(Supplement 1):S98-S110; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00379

    Community case management by community health workers has substantially reduced malaria across the Greater Mekong Subregion and Central America. To sustain current and achieve further reductions in malaria, surveillance and delivery platforms must be redesigned to ensure their continued use by key populations.

    Human-Centered Design and Sustainable Malaria Interventions
    Michael Macdonald and Thomas Putzer
    Global Health: Science and Practice June 2019, 7(2):148-149; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-19-00189

    Human-centered design provides a method to adapt malaria control interventions to be more closely aligned with a family's convenience, comfort, and personal lifestyle, enabling a broader and more sustained culture of access and use.

    Using a Human-Centered Design Approach to Determine Consumer Preferences for Long-Lasting Insecticidal Nets in Ghana
    Sharon Kim, Danielle Piccinini, Elorm Mensah and Matthew Lynch
    Global Health: Science and Practice June 2019, 7(2):160-170; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-18-00284

    Through focus group discussions and human-centered design exercises, middle-class Ghanaians communicated the need to address convenience, comfort, and aesthetics when designing a bed net for their demographic. Illustrative attributes for consideration by private-sector manufacturers include a more convenient way to hang the net, a more attractive silhouette, and a zipper to provide ease of entry and exit while keeping the area sealed from mosquitos.

    Novel Indoor Residual Spray Insecticide With Extended Mortality Effect: A Case of SumiShield 50WG Against Wild Resistant Populations of Anopheles arabiensis in Northern Tanzania
    Eliningaya Kweka, Aneth Mahande, Johnson Ouma, Wycliffe Karanja, Shandala Msangi, Violet Temba, Lucille Lyaruu and Yousif Himeidan
    Global Health: Science and Practice December 2018, 6(4):758-765; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-18-00213

    The new SumiShield 50WG insecticide, which possibly has longer duration of effectiveness than other indoor residual spray (IRS) formulations, has potential as an alternative IRS product for malaria vector control, particularly where resistance to other formulations has developed.

    Update of: Kheang et al., Malaria Case Detection Among Mobile Populations and Migrant Workers in Myanmar: Comparison of 3 Service Delivery Approaches

    Malaria Case Detection Among Mobile Populations and Migrant Workers in Myanmar: Comparison of 3 Service Delivery Approaches
    Soy Ty Kheang, May Aung Lin, Saw Lwin, Ye Hein Naing, Phyo Yarzar, Neeraj Kak and Taylor Price
    Global Health: Science and Practice June 2018, 6(2):384-389; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-17-00318

    In 3 regions of Myanmar, village malaria workers (VMWs) and mobile teams tested a higher number of people than strategically placed fixed screening points at border crossings, but VMWs and screening points yielded higher malaria positive rates. We recommend using a combination of these approaches in the Greater Mekong Subregion for such populations depending on the strategic approach of the program.
