Abstract

Community mobilization programmes have been implemented in malaria control efforts across Africa, aiming to enhance community participation and effectiveness. The study employed a mixed-methods approach combining qualitative interviews with quantitative data analysis to assess programme effectiveness and stakeholder satisfaction. Community participation increased by 45% in malaria prevention activities post-programme implementation, highlighting the efficacy of mobilization strategies. While significant progress was made, challenges such as resource allocation and community engagement sustainability remain key areas for future intervention. Enhanced training for local leaders, strategic planning for long-term sustainability, and robust monitoring mechanisms are recommended to sustain malaria control efforts.
