Liberia: Malaria Operational Plan FY 2016

By United States Agency for International D and U.S. Agency for International Development

This FY 2016 Malaria Operational Plan presents a detailed implementation plan for Liberia, based on the strategies of PMI and the National Malaria Control Program (NMCP). It was developed in consultation with the NMCP and with the participation of national and international partners involved in malaria prevention and control in the country. The activities that PMI is proposing to support fit in well with the National Malaria Control strategy and plan and build on investments made by PMI and other partners to improve and expand malaria-related services, including the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria (Global Fund) malaria grants. This plan was developed just after the 2014/2015 Liberia Ebola epidemic subsided. The Ebola crisis brought about massive disruptions in public and private health service delivery, historic reductions in health system health seeking by the population at large, and Ebola-related deaths among the health sector workforce. Thus this plan was developed during a period characterized by intense government and donor health system restoration and recovery focused efforts in Liberia. This document briefly reviews the current status of malaria control policies and interventions in Liberia, describes progress to date, identifies challenges and unmet needs to achieving the targets of the NMCP and PMI, particularly challenges encountered over the previous year as a result of Ebola, and provides a description of activities that are planned with FY 2016 funding
