Vector control innovation
When insecticide-based vector control tools—methods used to reduce mosquito populations and disease transmission—are consistently applied, they have proven highly effective in reducing malaria, particularly in Africa.
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.
