 The economic impact of the disease is a critical issue for global health, with important ramifications for public health policies, budget allocations for health services, and economic growth. The Third International Conference on Global Health Economics, held in Rwanda in 2019, was a major landmark in the global effort to design innovative financial strategies to […]

Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) have played a vital role in tackling humanitarian efforts worldwide. In particular, their adaptability, innovative ideas, and strong links with communities enable them to deliver services and influence change where and when they are needed most. For example, the Kigali Summit is one such event where this important work is showcased and

 Sitting astride a strategic ridge halfway up a mountain in the center of East Africa, Kigali, the increasingly dynamic capital of Rwanda, is part of the whole new world. Yet, corner of bandages hanging from a pole among a cluster of huts, Kigali is in a sense the same old place. A stream meanders through

Historically, family planning has been constrained by the risk of contracting malaria. While malaria impacts people globally, women and children in endemic regions suffer disproportionately, particularly girls and women of childbearing age. Although the disease knows no boundaries, gender-specific factors lead to differing and more severe effects on these groups, necessitating targeted preventative approaches. This

 Malaria is a potentially lethal parasitic disease that is spread by the bites of infected mosquitoes from the Anopheles family. Despite extensive gains in preventing and treating malaria, the disease remains a major public health threat in many parts of the world. While insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs) have served as the mainstay of malaria prevention,

Malaria remains a significant global health concern, especially in tropical and subtropical regions where it is most prevalent. Malaria often hits these regions the hardest. Insecticide-treated nets serve as an effective tool to combat this deadly disease, helping to treat malaria patients and prevent its spread. In essence, this article discusses five reasons why insecticide-treated

 Malaria is still one of the deadliest diseases worldwide. Every year, it results in over 430,000 recorded fatalities, the vast majority of them in sub-Saharan Africa. Although treatment and prevention have improved dramatically, the disease’s transmission persists and takes lives. One of the best tools today is the insecticide-treated net, or ITN. ITNs create a

 Malaria is still a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, particularly in tropical and subtropical areas. Pregnant women are vulnerable to severe illness and poor outcomes from malaria. One of the most effective tools for mitigating this danger is an insecticide-treated net (ITN). This article examines the relevance of ITNs for malaria prevention during

 Malaria is the greatest public health problem in many parts of the world, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Despite advancements in treatment and prevention, malaria still claims many lives in Africa, resulting in devastating social and economic effects. Therefore, adopting effective prevention strategies is crucial. Distributing insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) to communities stands out as one of

In some of the regions where the disease is most widespread, malaria is still one of the most pressing public health problems in the world. Moreover, from the perspective of development, scientific discoveries and public health solutions have not quite kept up with the problem. For instance, the discovery of the malaria parasite, the causative
