Description
Description | The development objective of the Schistosomiasis Control Project is to decrease the prevalence and intensity of infection of both urinary and intestinal schistosomiasis among school-age children by 2015 in endemic regions of Yemen. There are two components to the project. The first component of the project is preventive chemotherapy for schistosomiasis control. This component will support two anthelminthic drug delivery strategies (campaign-based preventive chemotherapy using fixed and temporary sites, and routine preventive chemotherapy), as well as technical assistance to support implementation, monitoring and evaluation of these strategies; training; and IEC (information, education, and communication) activities and social mobilization activities to support the effective application of the strategies. The second component of the project is independent monitoring, audit, and project administration. This component will support activities related to the independent monitoring of project targets and audit of project campaigns. The component will include support for mid-term and end-of-project evaluations as well as support for baseline, mid-term, and end of-project parasitological surveys for prevalence mapping used for classification and reclassification of endemic districts. The component will also provide project administration support through a Project Administration Unit (PAU) within the Ministry of Public Health and Population (MoPHP). |
