“Saving Lives from Malaria in Madagascar” video from the PMI AIRS Project.
In 2008, the President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI) began supporting indoor residual spraying (IRS) in Madagascar to prevent malaria. In 2014, PMI expanded its reach to include coast communities in the eastern part of the country, which suffers from typhoons, flooding and high incidences of malaria. Communities welcomed the IRS campaign and joined in the fight to improve their lives. Watch below to learn about one community’s story and the impact IRS has had on their lives.
