Abstract

There is no “one size fits all” intervention for malaria elimination due to the spectrum of available sub-optimal interventions acting at different stages of the parasite life-cycle and the heterogeneous transmission landscape. Every district of every country has its own unique challenges, conditions and solutions. Mathematical modelling is the best available approach for combining the many interacting factors that must be considered. In a recent project bespoke mathematical and economic models were developed in parallel with training a new group of modellers based in their own countries around the World. The resulting research demonstrates that modelling can be used to support all aspects of the World Health Organization Global Technical Strategy for Malaria within the countries where the disease persists.
