Establishing a malaria control programme
Step 2: Establishing commitment and support
Step 2: Establishing Commitment and Support
A vital component of a successful control programme is robust commitment from senior managers to the programme. This commitment is important for:
- Ensuring sufficient funds are made available or robust support is given to advocating for external funds.
- Ensuring senior managers support field managers in progressing with required changes to working sites or operations.
- Ensuring senior managers support field managers in requiring certain practices to be followed by staff, e.g. use of personal protection measures.
- Ensuring senior managers support processes for expanding beyond site control programmes to engage with national and sub national programmes and stakeholders.
Data from Step 1 will support the process of establishing commitment at senior levels.
