New module available: Sectoral guidance (Part 1)

by Admin User -

We are excited to announce the launch of Module 4: Sectoral Guidance (Part 1) in the course Multisectoral Approaches for the Prevention and Control of Vector-Borne Diseases (VBDs).

This module provides essential guidance for various sectors—such as agriculture, education, environment, and water and sanitation—within a Multisectoral Approach (MSA) for VBD prevention and control. It offers an introduction to key sectoral pathways and outlines the rationale for each sector's involvement, potential objectives, and valuable partnerships.

In Part 1, you will dive into specific multisectoral actions, learn where to start, and explore real-world case studies to guide your sector's contributions to VBD control.

Part 2 will be covered in Module 5, where additional sectors will be explored.

Access the module here.
