Workshop Assistant (Plateau) at Malaria Consortium (75 Openings)

Malaria Consortium, established in 2003, is one of the world’s leading non-profit organizations specializing in the comprehensive prevention, control and treatment of malaria and other communicable diseases among vulnerable and underprivileged populations. We increasingly find our work on malaria can be effectively integrated with other similar public health interventions for greater impact and therefore expanded our remit to include child health and neglected tropical disease interventions. We work in Africa and Asia with communities, governments, academic institutions, and local and international organizations, to ensure effective delivery of services, which are supported by strong evidence.

Malaria Consortium, through funding from the Philanthropy Funding supports NMEP and SMEP in Bauchi, Borno, FCT, Kebbi, Sokoto, Kogi, Nasarawa, Oyo and Plateau States to implement Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention (SMC). SMC involves the administration of monthly treatment courses of a combination of antimalarial drugs with the objective of maintaining therapeutic antimalarial drug concentrations in the blood throughout the period of transmission (rainy season) to prevent malaria.
