Upskilling last-mile health service providers

Echoing this sentiment, Pratik Kumar, Country Director, Malaria No More India said, “As a partner to the Government of Odisha, Malaria No More is committed to driving change and leading the state towards malaria elimination. We are certain that these materials will enable desired behaviors amongst the community and upskill last-mile health service providers. We believe our efforts in the state will serve as an example for other states to adopt and implement malaria elimination strategies.”

Malaria No More in Odisha

Malaria No More is an international NGO that envisions a world where no one dies from a mosquito bite Led by an experienced Indian team, Malaria No More’s work in India began in 2016 after an extensive landscape evaluation to inform how to best tailor the program. In 2018, Malaria No More set up India’s first Strategic Support Unit (SSU) to combat malaria in Odisha – one of India’s highest malaria burden states. Since its inception, the SSU has been providing technical and advocacy support to the Government of Odisha. In addition, MNM also has set up 2 District Program Management Units (DPMUs) in Koraput and Malkangiri – two districts that contribute significantly to the malaria burden of the state. We have close to 400 health workers, working at the last mile across these districts.

Malaria No More, through real-time interventions, tools, technology, capacity building support, and need-based IEC/BCC materials, has been addressing and supporting the last mile service delivery, and subsequently strengthening the fight against malaria – moving towards the reality of a Malaria Mukt Bharat!
