23+ million insecticide-treated bed nets distributed
by CRS through health ministries in The Gambia,
Ghana, Guinea, Madagascar Niger, and Senegal
60 percent of CRS’ malaria programs use mobile technology to improve speed
and accuracy of data collection, enable simple
analysis and use of complex data, or increase adherence
to malaria treatment guidelines.
CRS has supported malaria programming in The Gambia over the last 10 years, which
has contributed to a 95% reduction in malaria
prevalence from 4% in 2010 to 0.2% in 2014. The Gambia
