Join our webinar: Guidelines for pre-referral rectal artesunate implementation at community level for children with severe malaria
In 2023, the World Health Organisation (WHO) produced the document ‘Pre-referral treatment with rectal artesunate of children with suspected severe malaria: a field guide’, which provides overarching guidance for countries planning to introduce rectal artesunate in their malaria programmes. However, countries that are planning to adopt rectal artesunate have requested additional practical guidance on how to design and implement a community-based rectal artesunate intervention in rural settings.
To this end, Medicines for Malaria Venture and Transaid have developed Guidelines for pre-referral rectal artesunate implementation at community level for children with severe malaria. This provides step-by-step guidance on topics that will help to support the planning and implementation of a community rectal artesunate intervention. The guidelines contain practical information that can be adapted to suit a variety of implementation contexts.
Join us for a webinar hosted by RBM Partnership to End Malaria discussing the guidelines. *Interpretation in English, French and Portuguese will be available for this webinar.
The webinar will take place on Thursday 13 March 2025 (via Zoom):
14:00 – 14:45 (CET)
13:00 – 13:45 (UK)
