Project 1
Support of health system strengthening through the implementation of an electronic job aid, leDA-REC, to guide primary health workers on the use of Integrated Management of childhood Illness (IMCI) protocol. This improves significantly access of under-5 children in underserved rural settings to malaria case management (diagnosis, treatment and referral of severe cases).
