The Roll Back Malaria Partnership has launched a Toolbox website for malaria control
This new resource provides a critical arsenal of tools and methods to assist countries in their fight against malaria.
The RBM Toolbox contains a wide range of proven tools and methods to plan, manage, implement, and track the progress of malaria control scale-up. They can be adapted and applied to strengthen the capacity of malaria-endemic countries to rapidly scale up and sustain malaria control activities.
The Toolbox provides opportunities for shared learning by:
- Promoting the use of tools to improve field results.
- Promoting best or promising practices and evidence-based decision-making.
- Facilitating tools sharing with partners and countries.
- Limiting duplication of efforts.
- Providing a mechanism for obtaining partner feedback to improve tools and website.
- Helping identify additional tools needed to support country efforts.
The tools are organized into seven categories:
- Policies and Strategies.
- Assessing and Planning.
- Resourcing and Mobilization.
- Implementation of Interventions.
- Implementation Systems.
- Monitoring and Evaluation.
- Advocacy and Communication.
Some of the tools have been developed by individual RBM partner organizations; others have been developed by multipartner collaborations. All tools have been tested in malaria-endemic countries.
