17th Annual Meeting Vector Control Working Group, RBM VCWG
RBM Partnership To End Malaria welcomes you to the VCWG annual meeting, the 17th Annual Meeting Vector Control Working Group.
The Vector Control Working Group comprises a diverse array of stakeholders interested in advancing the impact of vector control towards the elimination of malaria. The VCWG is a platform for sharing research outcomes around both existing and new tools; for dialogue around operational priorities in vector control and for promotion of best practices, which support the needs of endemic countries. It achieves this through the combined inputs of a diverse array of partners from national disease control programs, funding organisations, implementing agencies, research and academia, private-sector industry and others. This diversity allows for rich dialogue and mutual learning and for the development of robust responses adapted to the challenges of vector control. Through an emphasis on collaboration with regional networks, the VCWG also ensures that the specific needs of endemic regions are taken into account.
After the success of the virtual sessions last year and keeping in mind the equal participation for all, it was decided to continue with the virtual sessions in 2022. The focus of the sessions are as follows:
- Session 1 on March 3rd – Updates from vector control community
