Marlou,
Thank you for this update.
As you we know certainly, WHO, RED CROSS INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION and a lot
of partners are supporting campaigns against malaria now through
distribution of ITN to the populations. some countries were already cover
and others programs are in course and will come.
I would like to put some discssions on that and suggess that if we could add
a study cases on how the process of malaria competences contribute (in the
countries that the experiences was made) :  1. to mobilize the communities
2. to increase the using rate of the ITN 3. reduisant the deaths cases of
the children under 5 years and pregnant women

thank you and good receive
Cheers
