IN THE FIELD
Community action is where strategy becomes service uptake.
GCNM connects local organisations, volunteers, health services and decision-makers so community evidence can improve malaria prevention, access, accountability and follow-up.

The coalition story in pictures
From community mobilisation to national coordination.
GCNM’s work connects people, local organisations and health-system partners across different stages of malaria programming.
GC8 strategic framework
Seven proposed priorities for stronger community contribution to malaria elimination.
Presented for engagement with NMEP, the framework connects civil society action to prevention, service access, accountability, data use and stronger local implementation systems.
01
ITN Distribution, Monitoring & Utilization
Community support for ITN distribution, post-campaign monitoring, net hanging, household education and use tracking.
Explore priority → 02Community-Led Monitoring
Digital community-generated evidence on barriers to prevention, diagnosis, treatment access and service quality.
Explore priority → 03Integrated Social & Behavior Change
Year-round, culturally appropriate engagement to improve prevention, care-seeking, ITN use and treatment adherence.
Explore priority → 04IPTp & Maternal Malaria Prevention
Community identification, follow-up, referral and communication to improve ANC attendance and IPTp uptake.
Explore priority → 05Community Case Management & Outreach
Stronger referral, diagnosis and treatment support for remote, vulnerable and hard-to-reach populations.
Explore priority → 06Surveillance, Monitoring & Elimination
Community-supported data collection, active case detection, coverage surveys and stronger district-level data use.
Explore priority → 07Organizational Sustainability & Systems Strengthening
Governance, financial management, reporting, leadership, compliance and stronger CSO partnerships for sustainability.
Explore priority →Cross-cutting priorities
Malaria elimination must be equitable today and resilient to tomorrow’s risks.
GCNM is integrating human rights, gender, health equity and climate resilience across community systems, monitoring, outreach and malaria programme accountability.
Leave no one behindHR
Human Rights, Gender & Health Equity in Malaria
A rights-based and equity-oriented malaria response seeks to ensure that every person can obtain information, prevention, diagnosis and treatment without avoidable discrimination, exclusion or harmful barriers.

Climate Change & Malaria Resilience
Climate and weather influence malaria transmission, community vulnerability and service continuity. GCNM’s role is to connect local evidence, climate-informed preparedness and community systems so malaria action can adapt as risk changes.
Explore the framework →Community-Led Monitoring connects both themes.
Equity markers help identify who is being missed; climate and service-continuity markers help identify when changing conditions may create new barriers. Both can be verified, escalated and tracked through the same accountability loop.
See the CLM approach →What we do
Community systems that make malaria programmes work better.
Our role is to organise civil society action around the practical barriers communities face, strengthen member capacity and help partners translate evidence into better delivery.
Social & behaviour change
Support trusted community communication that improves prevention, testing, treatment and care-seeking.
Learn more →Malaria prevention

Learn more →Community health systems
Strengthen links between civil society, volunteers, CHPS, health facilities and district structures.
Learn more →Policy & accountability
Bring community evidence into review, advocacy and decision-making spaces at district and national level.

Why the coalition matters
Local organisations see the last-mile problems first.
GCNM creates a structured route for those observations to become coordinated action. Members mobilise communities, collect and validate evidence, raise service-delivery barriers, support follow-up and contribute to stronger malaria programming.

Surveillance & Climate
Climate-Informed Surveillance Can Strengthen Local Malaria Preparedness
Combining climate signals, routine malaria surveillance and community observations can support earlier and more locally tailored preparedness.

How Community-Led Monitoring Can Reveal Hidden Malaria Inequities
Adding equity markers to CLM can help distinguish a general service problem from a barrier that repeatedly affects a particular population or location.
18 Sep 2026Climate & Malaria
Climate-Resilient Malaria Action Starts with Community Intelligence
Climate-sensitive malaria programming needs more than weather data: it requires local evidence about exposure, access, service continuity and changing community conditions.
