Nets will be distributed in all eleven Health Zones of Nord Ubangi (North Ubangi) district, one of the five districts of Equatéur Province, to achieve universal coverage (all sleeping spaces covered) across a population of some 1.3 million people. This will the first stage of a two stage net distribution approach that has the specific objective of maintaining sleeping space coverage at or above 80% for a period of four years. The second stage will involve continuous monitoring of net use and condition, and also net gaps, with additional net distribution as appropriate via 'routine distribution' mechanisms.

Post-distribution
AMF conducts regular post-distribution monitoring (PDM) after net distributions to verify that nets are reaching and protecting communities as intended. PDMs are typically conducted at 9, 18 and 27 months post distribution. At each monitoring point we visit a randomly selected sample of households that received nets during the campaign. PDMs are funded by AMF and conducted by independent organisations separate to those involved in the distribution. Through these monitoring visits, we gather substantial data on net presence, use and condition which allows us and our partners to understand how effectively they are being used to protect against malaria. The results of the PDM(s) conducted for this distribution can be accessed in the report below.
