Screening chemistry
Although primarily focused on malaria, IVCC recognises that new tools and products are likely to be effective against a wide range of other vector-borne diseases.
Product development
IVCC supports and undertakes world-class leading research and development to improve and extend the range of vector control tools to address the threat posed by insecticide resistance.
Outdoor biting control
Our new strategy acknowledges the importance of addressing emerging challenges, such as changes in mosquito biting behaviour. Our goal is to advance innovative technologies to address outdoor transmission.
Indoor residual spraying (IRS)
Our goal in the next five years is to maintain the relevance of IRS as a tailored vector control intervention and help maintain a minimum of three, different, non-pyrethroid modes of action for IRS that are effective against resistant mosquitoes.
Insecticide treated nets (ITNs)
IVCC develops new insecticides and net technologies for ITNs, including repurposed agricultural insecticides and novel active ingredients, to improve the quality and performance of ITNs, reduce malaria transmission, and enhance mosquito control efforts.
Zika Grand Challenge Projects
Supported by IVCC through scientific advice, laboratory support and rigorous field trials, SumiShield® 50WG, developed by Sumitomo Chemical, offers a new Mode of Action (MOA) Active Ingredient (AI) for vector control.
Forging global partnerships for Aedes control tools
Uniting global experts to advance Aedes mosquito control tools, addressing the growing threat of arboviral diseases like dengue and Zika.
