China (2009): Tracking Survey among Rural Populations in Malaria Endemic Townships in Target Counties in Yuxi, Honghe and Xishuangbanna Prefectures, Yunnan Province. Second Round.

PSI/China is implementing a five-year Global Fund funded program targeting the rural population in malaria endemic townships in the target counties of Yuxi, Honghe and Xishuangbanna Prefectures in Yunnan Province. The purpose of the program is to prevent malaria by increasing the use of insecticide treated nets (including LLITNs) among the target population through IEC, IPC and using a high coverage social marketing (SM) strategy to increase access to and availability of LLITNs. PSI is the only supplier of LLITNs in target area.This study design called for a multi-stage cluster sampling approach. Respondents were selected from the three malaria program prefectures, from which three counties (Hekou, Yuanjiang and Jinghong) were selected respectively.
