VectorLink
Objectives
VectorLink, in partnership with PMI, aims to:
- achieve and sustain universal ITN coverage in conjunction with a focused, data-driven approach to IRS.
Within VectorLink, the objective of PATH is:
- to supports integrated data analytics and visualization, leveraging existing data sources to support vector control program evaluation and decision-making.
Since 2006, PMI has protected millions of people in Africa from malaria through the deployment of insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS); which kills the mosquitoes that transmit malaria by spraying insecticide on the walls, ceilings, and other indoor resting places of those mosquitoes. In September 2017, the United States continued its commitment to tackling this deadly disease, launching the five-year PMI VectorLink Project.
Actively working across 23 countries in sub-Saharan Africa as well as Cambodia and Colombia, the PMI VectorLink Project is equipping countries to plan and implement safe, cost-effective, and sustainable IRS, ITN, and other life-saving malaria vector control interventions with the overall goal of reducing the burden of malaria.
