Adama,
I just cann't remain indiffrent to your mail .......
As you may have guessed we both work with the NMCP in Cameroon -- but at what level :
- Kondji works with an NGO that is a partner to the NMCP
- as for myself, I coodinate malaria control activities at regional level
of course this were the criteria for our selection for the mombasa workshop by the minister of health on recommendation by the NMCP
However, we are not able to sufficiently influence the national policy because we do not work at the central level
We tendered a report on return from mombasa to the Minister and to the NMCP...... You'll want to guess that nothing concrete followed seeing the there were no sources of funding that had to follow
My daily job consists of implementing the National malaria ontrol policy
at regional level ...... of course this is generally financed by a stakeholders --- who thus imposes a certain number of conditions, hence it's not so feasible to get things integrated from the Regional (Provincil) level without any "green lights" from the central level.
We are thus caught in such a "traffic jam"
May God bless you
Emmanuel Forlack,
Coordinator,

My Collegues,Emanuel and KonjiIts a bit unfortunate that you are unable to garther that much support needed to push forward malaria competence at your places. Is your national malaria program not part of the process? I guess they are the right people to start with. They need to be commiteed to mobilise support and committement for the approach. I think the best way to get the needed community involvelement and participation for malaria is through the community competence process. The training that Ibrahim conducted for plan should have also been the catalyst for a start of course with your involvelment and participation as the country facilitators. Anyway keep pushing no retreat we shall all succeed when the luck comes our wayThanksAdama----- Original Message ----

Hi Emmanuel, I totally agree with you; we commited ourselves to promote malaria competence in our country and regions because we re convinced on the effectiveness of this approach; we invested our effort and means to concretise it in the field; we hope that some support will be available in order to consolidate and extend the malaria comptence in our country.Best regardsGreetings from Harare.----- Message d'origine ----

Adama and all,it's been a longtime since I wrote ......I've still been working on malaria control activities in my region all the same .......Our (Kondji and myself) advocacies at national level failed from the onset .... probably because no funds could be mobilised... ......... .. you may well remeber that Norah Ngwenya had posed this problem at the very beginning in MombasaEach of us personnally financed the little we did for the Yaounde meeting.Practically, malaria competence activities in my region went on through a parrallel means : Ibrahim came all the way from Sierra Leone to train Plan Cameroon staff ...... unfortunately, niether Kondji nor myself were integrated in the processHence, though we (Kondji and myself) are still very willing to carry on the process ....... we've been suffocatingMay God Bless YouEmmanuel

Hi Katie,
These are useful information, indeed we need support to further scale
malaria competence in our countries, since funding is a major limitation.
Thanx for the attachment which is very elaborative and could be a corner
stone to demonstrate to other stakeholders that malaria competence works.
Since July this year when we had our first workshop that introduces malaria
competence to various partners in Tanzania, there is a new enthusiasm on the
approach. This commitment has arrived at the right time since it will
stimulate and accellerate the implementation process.
Regards,
Chacha
