The proposed areas include ITN distribution and post-campaign monitoring, Community-Led Monitoring, integrated social and behaviour change, IPTp and maternal malaria prevention, community case management and outreach, surveillance and elimination activities, organizational systems strengthening, and SMC social mobilization.
