<p><strong>Research goals:</strong> To assess efficacy of house-screening and Long-Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLINs) in reduction of indoor mosquito-vector densities compared to sole-use of LLINs in malaria control. Also, assess the socio-economic incremental costs and benefits of Integrated Vector Management.</p>
<p><strong>Host project and funding: </strong>AFRO-II Project funded by the World Health Organization Regional Office for Africa (WHO-AFRO) through <em>icipe</em> and the National Malaria Elimination Centre (NMEC), Zambia.</p>
