The aim of the Malaria Knowledge Programme (MKP) is to improve the management of malaria through better intervention and control of the disease. Based at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine and funded by the Department for International Development (DFID), the focus of the MKP is on malaria vector control, the establishment of systems in Colombia and Mexico for ensuring widespread use of bednets, and improving user-friendliness of malaria epidemic forecasting models. Research also focuses on the best ways of ensuring that vulnerable groups have access to high quality diagnosis and care.
