AvecNet (African Vector Control: New Tools) is a collaborative project between African and European Researchers to develop and evaluate new tools for malaria control in Africa.
Our objectives include:
• |
Ensuring the sustainability of existing interventions such as LLINs and IRS |
• |
Developing new tools for malaria vector control |
• |
Generating the knowledge necessary to adapt control strategies to changing disease transmission dynamics |
AvecNet is financed by the European Commission’s Seventh Framework Programme under the specific programme: FP7-Africa-2010. The project started in February 2011 and involves 15 partners, 8 in Europe and 7 in Africa.
