Until 2015 – Insecticide Resistance

Until 2015 – Insecticide Resistance

Leaders
Prof Janet Hemingway, LSTM, UK
Prof Maureen Coetzee, Wits University, South Africa

Working Group Secretariat
Dr Konstantina Boutsika, Swiss TPH

Rapidly increasing insecticide resistance threatens to undermine recent gains against malaria in Africa. Work steam partners are expanding monitoring sites, standardizing procedures and reporting, developing a global strategic plan for insecticide resistance and providing more coordinated support as national resistance management strategies are developed and implemented.
