Welcome to the IVCC website. The IVCC has been established to address the lack of development of new insecticides for public health vector control and to develop informatic tools which will enable new and existing pesticides to be used more effectively. We are developing a portfolio of these products which will be immediately accessible to people in the developing world.
Our mission statement is:
To improve health by enabling partnerships for the accelerated development and delivery of new products and tools that increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the control of insects which transmit disease.
