Deadline- 2 December 2013
Proposals are accepted for Research on the impact of insecticide resistance mechanisms on malaria control failure in Africa under Research teams from African research institutions. Under this call, only one multi-country proposal will be selected for funding for two years for a maximum total funding of US$ 400 000. The mission of this program is to support research teams from African institutions to undertake research in collaboration with national malaria control programmes to assess the mechanisms of resistance to the insecticides used in malaria control in Africa, and to establish a link between resistance and control failure (including the contributions of different resistance mechanisms) under field conditions.
Eligibility & Criteria-
- Research teams from African research institutions, in collaboration with national malaria control programmes, are invited to submit proposals.
- This call is in support of the roadmap for the implementation of the global plan for resistance management in malaria vectors in Africa. Consequently, research teams and NMCPs involved in the activities of the African Network for Vector Resistance to Insecticides are particularly invited to apply. Proposals that build on existing networks, involve collaboration with NMCPs, complementing ANVR activities and with a capacity building component in African countries are strongly encouraged.
