    Malaria Vector Surveillance for Elimination (MVSE)

    1st Malaria Vector Surveillance for Elimination (MVSE)
    2nd Malaria Vector Surveillance for Elimination (MVSE)
    3rd Malaria Vector Surveillance for Elimination (MVSE)

    The inaugural training course of APMEN’s flagship capacity development program for Asia Pacific NMCP and partner institutions. The course aims to ensure national program entomologists in the countries are trained in entomological surveillance and best practice field and laboratory techniques relevant to control and elimination settings; this capacity building exercise hopes to also contribute to achievement of the regional targets set for malaria elimination, by making vector control more efficient, cost-effective, ecologically sound and sustainable.

    MVSE is the flagship training program initiated by APMEN. It specifically targets capacity gaps in vector identification (morphology and molecular) and mapping, insecticide-resistance testing, and data-informed decision making for vector control strategies

    The Joint APMEN – Mohanlal Sukhadia University 3rd International Training Course on Malaria Vector Surveillance for Elimination

    Vector control is the single most effective intervention for achieving a reduction in malaria transmission. Such vector control must be underpinned by a thorough understanding of which vector species are present in a particular area, relative abundance of the various species, breeding site preference, feeding and resting behavior, insecticide susceptibility, data management, data interpretation, all of this then integrated into an effective vector control plan. Each of these elements requires knowledge and skills for effective data sourcing, processing and application, without which vector control programmes would be wasteful and misdirected, or even completely ineffective. APMEN adds value to such capacity gaps which often occur in programmes, to achieve optimized levels of vector surveillance which is the foundation for effective vector control interventions. 

    This July, we have conducted The Joint APMEN – Mohanlal Sukhadia University 3rd International Training Course on Malaria Vector Surveillance for Elimination in Rajasthan India. Twenty-one candidates from seven countries across the South Asia region have been selected competitively for this course.
