RBM VCWG Webinar on Evaluating the Impact of IRS and ITNs: Lessons from PMI VectorLink / Évaluer l’impact de la PID et des MII: leçons de PMI VectorLink

The Roll Back Malaria Vector Control Working Group (RBM VCWG) is inviting you to register for the webinar titled “Evaluating the Impact of IRS and ITNs: Lessons from PMI VectorLink”. With the introduction of new indoor residual spraying (IRS) and insecticide-treated net (ITN) products, national malaria programs (NMPs) increasingly need to make data-driven, subnational decisions. Since September 2017, the U.S. President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI) VectorLink Project has focused on integrated data analytics, visualization, and evaluation to help inform vector control decisions and strategies in partnership with NMPs.

This webinar will synthesize key results from the evaluations completed under PMI VectorLink, explore how these results were used for decision-making, and highlight areas for future vector control evaluation. We will take a deep dive into two evaluations: the impact of clothianidin-based IRS in Côte d’Ivoire and the impact of IG2 ITNs in Mali.
