Table 4 Key learnings from malaria elimination choices and changes
• Strategic plans and stratification strategies are an important part of programme planning • In most cases, programme action occurred as a result of an increase in malaria cases or deaths. In a few cases, a new elimination goal or leadership drove action • Some programmes showed a high degree of flexibility and adoption of new strategies and tools • Programmes likely avoided outbreaks by working with other sectors to identify and respond to threats of importation or increased incidence • Analysis and feedback of programme performance to the periphery is important but not well-described in the case-studies |
