Tanzania Malaria Surveillance Activity (TMSA)

The Tanzania Malaria Surveillance Activity (TMSA) aims to support the Government of Tanzania (GOT) to reduce the burden of malaria and move towards the long-term goal of malaria elimination. Under this activity, USAID/Tanzania will fund malaria case management, malaria in pregnancy (MIP) through quality improvement initiatives and malaria surveillance, drug efficacy monitoring, and monitoring of and implementation of other drug-based interventions. With the improved surveillance data gained during the implementation of this activity, the Recipient and government partners will refine responses to outbreaks and foci of transmission and adjust Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) and other vector control interventions in zones with differing transmission profiles. The target populations for the TMSA are malaria at-risk populations, especially vulnerable populations such as pregnant women and children under five.
