Project outline and objectives
The Regional Artemisinin Initiative 2 Elimination (RAI2E)
project will improve existing malaria prevention and control
services and build the technical and programme management
skills of provincial health department, operational district and
health centre staff in the Kampot, Kep and Takeo provinces in
southern Cambodia.
Activities
Malaria Consortium will:
• support provincial health departments and operational
districts to train and supervise health centre staff and
outreach workers (VMWs and MMWs) on community case
management of malaria
• assist operational districts and health centres in planning for
a mass long lasting insecticidal nets distribution campaign
for beds and hammocks
• work with provincial health department and operational
district staff to develop and deliver tailored social and
behaviour change (SBC) interventions — including concerts,
phone-in radio broadcasts and mobile theatre shows — to
high-risk groups, and train supervisors to deliver one-on-one
SBC messaging to VMWs
• strengthen surveillance and support the rollout of the
national malaria information system by assisting operational
district staff to train health centre workers and VMWs on
real-time electronic reporting
• assist operational districts to integrate reporting accuracy
checks into supervision visits and help them monitor
incoming data, identify errors and check for incomplete
reporting
• train provincial health department and operational district
staff to use data to plan supervision visits, identify trends
in malaria transmission and respond to outbreaks with
targeted interventions
• provide formal training on compliance with Global Fund
financial regulations and reporting for provincial health
department and operational district staff
• assist health centres and operational districts to use
an electronic mobile payment system to pay VMWs
(incentives, travel costs, per diems, etc.)
• support provincial health departments and co-host a
Provincial Malaria Elimination Committee meeting — with
a focus on planning, managing and coordinating malaria
elimination activities — attended by various provincial
departments, civil society organisations, provincial and
district authorities, and National Center for Parasitology
Entomology and Malaria Control staff. |
