Malaria recruits 01 Togo Administrative and Logistics Officer
Country and project background
To prevent malaria in those most vulnerable to the disease’s effects in areas where malaria transmission is seasonal, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC). SMC is the intermittent administration of monthly courses of sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) and amodiaquine (AQ), or SPAQ, to children between 3 and 59 months during
months of high transmission. Malaria Consortium has been a leading implementer of SMC since the WHO issued its recommendation to scale up the intervention in 2012. Currently, Malaria Consortium supports at-scale implementation of SMC in Togo, Chad, Nigeria, and Togo, mainly using philanthropic funding received because of being awarded Top Charity status by GiveWell. In Togo, Malaria Consortium started supporting the National Malaria Control Programme (NMCP) in 2020. We aim to work with government and partners to ensure high-quality delivery of SMC to over 600,000 children in Centrale, Kara, Plateaux and Savanes regions.
For the 2024 SMC campaign, the Malaria Consortium will support 5 cycles in 4 regions and 23 districts: Malaria Consortium’s main area of intervention is the Savanes region, with support for certain SMC activities in the other regions where the SMC is implemented.
To assess our performance and to support decision-making, we routinely track the quality of programme delivery, coverage, efficacy, safety, drug resistance, impact, and cost. Specifically, this involves collecting and analysing administrative data, conducting household surveys, and scrutinising stock consumption data. In addition, Malaria Consortium conducts research on selected SMC-related topics to maximise efficiency, drive innovation and demonstrate impact.
