This film is the Bemba version of our English film: Is your child sick - identifying a sick child (pneumonia, diarrhoea and malaria)
Decree of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Number 122 / MENKES / SK / IX / 2002 on the establishment of coordination committee of AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria in Indonesia

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing threat to our health, causing at least 700,000 deaths globally every year. The death toll attributed to AMR is predicted to rise, with most lives lost in low and middle income countries (LMICs).
AMR is also a critical challenge for many other sectors, inc

MMV collaborates with global partners to ensure access to pediatric antimalarial medicines, such as dispersible tablets and rectal treatments, especially in low-resource settings. The page emphasizes the importance of innovation, accessibility, and partnerships in reducing childhood malaria mortality.

The document "Classification and Referral Algorithm – iCCM Uganda" (2013) by Malaria Consortium provides a practical guide for community health workers to assess, classify, and manage common childhood illnesses in Uganda. It focuses on key symptom

s such as fever, cough, diarrhoea, and danger signs like convulsions or inability to drink. Based on these assessments, the guide helps determine whether a child needs urgent referral to a health facility or can be treated at home. It includes detailed treatment protocols using medicines like amoxicillin, ORS, zinc, Coartem, and rectal artesunate. The goal is to strengthen integrated community case management (iCCM) to reduce child mortality through early detection, appropriate treatment, and timely referral.

Position Statement
Malaria remains a significant public health concern, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, where the majority of cases and fatalities occur, especially among children under five. Although there was a significant decline in global mortality and inciden

ce between 2000 and 2015, progress has stalled since the late 2010s due to climate change, conflict, drug and insecticide resistance, and the ongoing effects of the pandemic. Economic modelling shows that achieving the Sustainable Development Goal target of reducing malaria incidence by 90% by 2030 could generate substantial economic benefits, including an increase in GDP of $142.7 billion in endemic countries and $80.7 billion in global trade gains. To save lives, strengthen health systems, and drive sustainable economic growth, renewed investments in malaria control and elimination programmes, vaccine deployment, and coordinated international support are essential.

Antimalarial chemotherapy is crucial for reducing morbidity, mortality, and drug resistance, and is the cornerstone of malaria control. Existing antimalarial drugs act at different stages of the parasite’s life cycle. These drugs range from classi

c agents such as chloroquine and quinine to newer artemisinin derivatives. They include tissue schizonticides, blood schizonticides, gametocytocides, and sporontocides. Artemisinin and its derivatives are the most effective and fastest-acting treatment against drug-resistant Plasmodium falciparum, achieving rapid parasite clearance and reducing transmission potential. Other key drugs include mefloquine, halofantrine, proguanil, sulfadoxine–pyrimethamine, atovaquone–proguanil, tetracyclines, clindamycin and azithromycin. Each of these drugs has a specific mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, safety profile and contraindications. Rational drug combinations and adherence to national treatment guidelines are essential for managing resistance, ensuring safety in vulnerable populations such as children and pregnant women, and optimising therapeutic outcomes in cases of both uncomplicated and severe malaria.
