Pre-distribution information

Malaria is endemic and a major health problem in Papua New Guinea (PNG). Abau is a coastal district and has one of the highest incidences of malaria in the country.

The distribution of 20,000 LLINs, in three related distributions, will achieve blanket coverage - all sleeping spaces covered - in some 40 villages. The three distribution areas will be Aroma rural, Cloudy Bay rural and Amazon Bay rural.

The distribution will be the responsibility of and coordinated by Rotarian groups in PNG working in collaboration with the PNG Dept of Health.
