About the Program

World Malaria Day is observed on April 25 to raise awareness about Malaria and promote global efforts to control and eliminate it. The program includes activities such as health camps, free malaria testing, distribution of insecticide-treated mosquito nets, and awareness campaigns through rallies, posters, and social media. Communities are educated about prevention methods like maintaining cleanliness and avoiding stagnant water. Healthcare workers are trained to ensure early diagnosis and proper treatment. These coordinated efforts aim to reduce malaria cases, improve public health, and encourage community participation in preventing the spread of the disease.
