Study Sites

This study aimed to investigate the magnitude and causes of ongoing malaria transmission in two geographical areas of the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) across three ecological niches, namely villages, farms and forested areas.

Thailand:

• Suan Oi village
• Pa Man village
• Komonae village

Viet Nam:

• Son Thai Commune

The primary aim of this study is to increase the awareness of ongoing malaria transmission in two different "hot spots" in the Peruvian and Brazilian Amazon with the purpose of generating the evidence that may benefit the implementation of strategic measures against malaria.

Peruvian Amazon:

• Napo river: Salvador and Urco Miraño communities
• Mazán river: Libertad and Visto Bueno communities

Brazilian Amazon:

• Mâncio Lima

The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of ongoing malaria in two sites in Papua New Guinea and to understand how humans, vectors and their interactions influence human infection by malaria in these areas.

• Megiar, Mirap, Bulal and Wasab villages
• Lossuk, Lubura, Lavolai and Lamusmus villages

This study quantified and characterized existing ongoing Plasmodium transmission in communuities where LLINs are already widely used, but where transmission still exists.

Tanzania:

• Nine villages in the Kilombero River Valley

Burkina Faso:

• Santidougou and Kimidougou villages

This study aimed to understand the contribution of entomological, ecological and anthropogenic factors in sustaining ongoing malaria transmission in Kenya, Cameroon and Ethiopia.

Cameroon:

• Olama village

Kenya:

• Chodari, Ngombeni, Mapawa, Ziani, Makata and Pingilikani

Ethiopia:

• Bore Tika (Seka) village
• Chewaka village
